Fascinating and truly beautiful story celebrating our uniquenesses. I very much enjoyed the reader too, who brought life to each character and gave the written word many new dimentions with their interpretation of the characters. Listen to it!

A book that could warm the coldest of hearts (and the readers variations of voices for the different characters were absolutely astounding and hilarious) GREAT WORK!!!

Piękna opowieść, krótka, ale piękna. Wymusza uśmiech na twarzy dorosłego i koi niespokojne wewnętrzne dziecko. Podczas lektury wręcz czuje się zapach morskiej soli w powietrzu i słyszy śmiech dzieci w wielkim, ceglanym domu na brzegu morza.Dodatkowo język nie jest zbyt skomplikowany, a lektor mówi bardzo wyraźnie - myślę, że osoba na poziomie B2 znajdzie w tym audiobooku wielką przyjemność, jak i ćwiczenie rozumienia ze słuchu.

I loved this book. It had so many aspects I enjoyed: romance, little bit of adventure, sweet characters. This story really gives me hope and reminds me that all of us can find a place to belong in. I think this could also be a great read aloud storytimebook for kids who are struggling to find their place in life.
