Book 78: The Astounding Broccoli Boy by Frank Cottrell Boyce


Another of the books which we're reading for class next year. This is much more of a straightforward kids' book. It was a cute story and is well written, but it's not something I'd read as an adult for my own pleasure - nothing wrong with it, but it's much more firmly in the category of childrens book than Skellig, or than many of the young adult titles I read. I think the kids will like it, though. It's got some nice messages in it without beating you around the head with them, and it's pretty funny.
