A great collection of short stories. Worthy of the awards. Usually, I am not a fan of short stories, but this collection was amazing. They all ran with an Indian-American theme, but each story was from a different angle.
This rating is yet another compromise. Julia says 4, I say 2/2.5, and it gets a 3. :) I liked the kids imagination in the book, the bed and dresser surrounded by water, frogs and fish. I'm 100% positive Julia was able to relate but the kid had an amazing imagination herself. I'm positive she sees her games in this same manner at times. That was my favorite part of the book. The text left a lot to be desired for me. Julia seemed okay with it and had no comment when I asked her. I think because the text isn't a story in whole sentences she wasn't sure how to form her thoughts maybe. "Leaping, lunging, lily pad plunging... Dipping, dashing, iceberg splashing..." We're both more into whole sentence stories but I have to admit it did have a certain ring to it here. I wouldn't go out of my way to show the book to anyone or recommend it but it was an okay book to add into our afternoon reading.
