Reviews

[Maria · Rating 5 out of 5]

This was a great read. The stories were short enough to read in short bursts but as soon as I started I couldn't stop reading. Because the stories were in many cases taken from the authors life, they were at times funny and angry, and other times romantic and poignant. The Unkillable Cohen's was a sad story of pain and loss. The Gelato Shop was a beautiful fictional story of love and commitment. A Boy and a Boat, was an exciting story of a boy and his belief in himself and in magic. This short book was full of things that would really strike a cord in many readers hearts!
