This was one of my favorite books as a child, and I was relieved to find it when I found all of my childhood books in my parents' attic. It is essentially a remixed Cinderella story, but I really enjoyed the different riff on it.

Read for Judah's school. Too much focus on him being a misbehaving child. Ya, he had consequences he had to deal with. But just didn't sit well with me. Maybe I'm crazy. But I di like the intro into the Chinese culture for Judah.

Loved, loved, loved this movie when it came out and I was a child. Hasn't held up over time. Acting is pretty horrible. The alien animation and costumes aren't any better. I still have fond memories of this movie however.

"I debated between Cervantes’ ‘Don Quijote’ and ‘Martín Fierro,’ because they both are great classic epic stories in the Spanish language, but ended up choosing José Hernández’s great poetic work because of my early connection with it as a child growing up in Argentina."

Book Favorite

"McCullers is one of those rare writers who remember what childhood is like. Not incidents, which anyone can recall, but states of mind, which are so difficult to recreate. My wife and I named our first child, Frankie, in honor of the novel’s heroine."
