Why read it?

1 author picked Just a Regular Boy as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

One of her best. And since I've read most of them, that's saying a lot. Wonderfully rich story, but what I especially loved, was the wisdom woven in about what it's like to be human, and how there is still good in the world.

Her books restore my faith in humanity. So, so very good.
