When I read this book, I feel like Im Jesse. This happens to me because Im totally mesmerized by the story. Im 22 and this story reminds me of my childhood days which will never come back. However, the story is awesome and all the characters are depicted very skillfully by Paterson. Ive seen the movie based on this book. But I think, once you have read the story, you dont have to watch the movie. Because this book itself is like a movie. You can see all the actions clearly in your imagination.This book is published by Puffin. So I dont want to say anything about the quality of the book. There are nice illustrations in the beginning of every chapter. The cover page is very impressive.In a nutshell, if you havent read this book, youve missed a great opportunity.
