Amazing. There is something in this short story for every reader: drama, action, adventure, character, and, most definitely, humor.

I can already picture myself quoting this constantly because so many of the statements are so very perfect for the context.

Do read this book, or listen to it on audio. You will smile constantly, and, almost certainly, laugh at least once. I'd recommend it to adults and young adults as a very easy and pleasant read. Perhaps a nice diversion after or alongside more challenging texts. This story could engage middle grade readers if read aloud...the commentary may be off putting at the beginning otherwise.
