"Arguably the finest Irish book and Irish film of the last few decades. Twisted and funny and dark. Pat McCabe and Neil Jordan are masters"

This book was ok, some of it was quite funny, other bits....not so much. I'm sure I saw some one-liners repeated a couple of times throughout the book. Ok for an amusing light read.

This is my Condense Review:
I received this book from the author. I read it and it was every cute and funny. I rhymes every so often. The story tell about how he is named "I'm Squirrely".

I love how the pictures are funny to look at and the story itself is funny. I was laughing almost every time I read the book. It tell how he acts in school and what he does at home. It show just how he loves moving and Grooving.

"“Stern” is about being Jewish in the American dream suburbs in the 1950s. It’s very dark and very, very funny. Maybe the funniest book I’ve ever read."
