So when the family whose house the cockroaches inhabit decides they don't want to live with cockroaches anymore (justifiably, as the bugs make the kid sick and ROACHES ARE GROSS) the roach-turned-boy, our titular Clarence, stands up for his family and tries to convince the humans not to wipe out an entire colony of living, loving, sweet-tempered creatures. Forgive me if I don't weep at the possibility of cockroach murder.
This book is one of two things: a ridiculously far-fetched parable about how we should all just get along, or the disguised manifesto of a vegan and/or Buddhist who believes no living thing should ever be intentionally killed.
There may very well be plenty of kids who will enjoy this, but I found it irritating, predictable, and didactic. ( )
