This was definitely an eye-opener, and is a great source of information. Not only do you see how differently people in other countries eat, but you also see how little some have. In addition, the author talks about customs and ways of life, so you get a mini portrait of life in another country. My only complaint is that I wish the author had indicated whether a family was typical or representative of their country (such as how many children they have,if extended family typically live together, are their jobs average or low-paying, etc.)
An incredibly insightful book- while the main storyline is certainly enjoyable, the subtext concerning the US economy & death of US industry could not be more accurate for today's current events... and this was written in the early 90s.
Wow what a really fun read! It might sound weird, but I have always imagined my favorite character from a book coming to life and this book (sort of) made my dreams come true! It was really awesome to see Amy's journey throughout the novel and seeing her meet and eventually fall in love with her favorite character: Alexander Banks. The only thing that I did not really like about this one was the plot moved a little bit too quick and I wished that the story was longer! If you always have imagined your favorite book character coming to life, give this book a try!
