Nothing special!
A história é boa mas está longe de ser brilhante, em compensação a ilustração é extasiante, o que faz do livro uma imensa e agradável experiência de leitura, mais ainda se lido no Verão. Adorei também as onomatopeias assentes em verbos, como que a tentar criar uma forma de expressão distinta, mais direta mas mantendo a expressividade visual. Ou seja, nota máxima para o trabalho de Mariko Tamaki (a ilustradora), nota menos boa para a prima Jillian Tamaki (a escritora).
I read this in perhaps half an hour which is always nice. I really really loved the graphics and for me, that definitely was what made me give it 4 stars. The characters were also pretty good, but I do think that the plot and the overall course of the book could have been much better. I felt a bit disappointed because I was enjoying it so freaking much and was so excited to see where it was going and then when I got to the end of it and nothing really happen I was just like: for real? I guess that was clearly intentional but still I was left with that feeling of wanting the story to be longer and perhaps have a more neat ending.
