Read this book in one sitting. It’s a page-turner for me. And it’s quite charming and heartwarming.
I loved it. This is a book about a kid name Sander, who have a Silver Russell Syndrome which I have never heard of or read about.

Maybe what makes our main character, Sander, special to me is that I can see a little bit myself in him. In fact, I think we can be good friends. Like, I can relate to a lot of things he was feeling. The friendships here might a bit monotone, but at the same time understandable.

This book may not have a dramatic event, something that made you gasps, or blew your mind, BUT, it deals with a lot of important things in a gentle and kind way. 

Also, this book sets in Norway! Which is fun to read. I love reading books that sets in Norway ☺️
