Changes

On the downside though - it is short. this works well for younger readers, but I usually like a bit more. To be fair though, there is no padding and not a single slow spot. I read it cover to cover in two hours, although it has taken me far longer to read it aloud. The reading level of this book is quite easy, and I am really not certain if this is meant to be classed as young adult or adult fiction. It works equally well for either in my opinion. Not only have I read it, my oldest (age 8) is near finishing it on his own and I read the book to my five year old as well, skimming over just a couple of bits. My children especially loved the illustrations - which are quite strange really, medical type drawings of several types of skulls or other body parts. Both boys rate this 5 stars, as do I but I will warn parents there is one instance of a teenager smoking a marijuana cigarette. It turns out to be rather bad idea, so I have no problem with this for my eldest, but skipped this part with my youngest.
