Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe

Aristotle and Dante

In the book “Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe” by Benjamin Alire Sanchez was about a boy named Aristotle who was lonely and angry. He didn’t have any friends until he met a boy named Dante and they became the best of friends. These boys were there for each other in the good times and bad times. When one of them was in the hospital the other one would go visit. Aristotle and Dante had parents that cared about them. Dante taught Aristotle how to swim. Eventually Aristotle and Dante got jobs so they didn’t see each other very much, but got together when they could. Aristotle would drive Dante to his favorite spot to see the beautiful sky and that was a great part of them to seeing their secrets of the universe. When Dante had to move to Chicago for a school year, they wrote letters to each other until he got back. Nothing is perfect no matter how good you bond with an individual. I am so glad that Aristotle found a best friend to do things with.
I can relate to this book so much in my life. When I was a teenager and beyond, I loved to go out and look at the night sky and look at the stars. I still do, but haven’t been able to do it in a while due to a physical injury. I will eventually when I get healthy once again. My husband and I were lucky like these boys to come from a caring family that loved us so much too. In any kind of relationship, it’s important to be there for one another. I loved going camping with no tent so I could see the sky and the stars when I went to sleep.

I just read this and was so taken with all the love,laughter and caring. Like you said, the parents were very kind and thoughtful,also. What got me interested in reading a teen/YA book like this(rarely do) is that it is often BANNED! Too much intelligence and caring!? (I know,boys loving and kissing each other.)
