I just read the book Room

by Emma Donaghue and it kind of blew me away. It's a simple book, in a way, but it's written from the POV of a 5-year-old, and, given that my kids are 6 and 3, I guess I could relate. Also, the 5-year-old is very different and very special and very sensitive, all of which characterizes my two boys, and I just connected with it. It's also brilliantly written and inventive and layered. I just loved it.
