This is a remarkable book.It portrays Asperger's Syndrome in a remarkable way which is an amazing achievement for Mark Haddon.I enjoyed reading this book and cannot wait to read A Spot Of Bother and the other Haddon books.
This book was awarded many awards including the Whitbread Book Awards for Best Novel and Book of the Year,the Commonwealth Writers prize for Best First Book and The Guardian Children's Fiction Prize.
It has been described as 'a rewarding read' which I could not agree more with.
I loved reading the story of 15-year-old Christoper John Francis Boone who suffers from Asperger's syndrome.I could not thank Mr.Haddon enough for introducing me to to one of my favourite fictional characters.
