Kenneth McKinley | 34 comments Ketchum creates some great characters in this one. Avery is like the familiar grandpa that everyone likes. You really feel for him.

What part was that?


message 34: by Addy (new) - rated it 5 stars

Addy | 1944 comments When Avery talks about that as a boy he and a friend found some caves near the water. Totally gave me an Offspring vibe when he described the inside of the cave.
