I have never read a book quite like this one and it is one of those off-the-wall stories that would be ideal for a movie adaptation. I'd love to see Albert on the big screen in his little sailor hat, making his happy ''yeah-yeah'' sound as Elsie rubs his creamy belly. Hickham has done his late parents proud in sharing their special story and I'm sure that they would have loved the fact that a wider audience can now enjoy it too. Many thanks for my review copy.
For more Floridian fun, try [[Swamplandia! By by Karen Russell]], the tale of a teenage alligator wrestler and her family in a failing Florida theme park.
