. I read it many, many, many years ago. Although I remember the basic premise of the book, I had long since forgotten the details of the plot. It was an amazing read. I was grateful for the experience I shared with my children.
Within the first few pages, my children and I were laughing so hard our sides hurt. In fact I had to reread the portions about the family cat several times because they could barely hear me through the riotous laughter. By the end of the book, we finished up a box of tissue. Many days it was difficult to put the book down because we just had to find out what happened next.
I was extremely impressed with Billy, the protagonist. He is an amazing mentor of hard-work, faith in God and obedience to parents. His choices offered many opportunities to talk about how important it is to talk and share experiences with parents. This is a book every family deserves to read and every child deserves to hear.
