I have mixed emotions about this one, because there are some parts I really like and some I don't.
I was taken by the problems Sophie and her family have to deal with. I felt for them, but on the other hand, I have the impression that Bredons parents often treat him the same way they accuse others of doing.
I thought it was all about finding solutions and dealing with problems and was expecting a story full of emotions pulling at my hartstrings. And I have to admit, there were some, but for me the part about the cake and Sophie's love life did not add anything.
I also question the end of the book. Why does it have to be like this? It felt like a part was missing or if a sequel is in the make, it should have been mentioned.
To me, the book felt a bit like a missed opportunity.

This is a wonderful book that depicts the roller coaster ride for a parent of a "special needs" child. I am glad the book is realistic and not overwhelmingly long nor heavily depressing. If this book were read by more, perhaps there would be better understanding in our world.
