David Almond really has a knack for getting insde the heads of young characters, which makes for some very interesting and entertaining reads. In this novel we are immersed in the life of Mina, a young girl who doesn't quite fit in, but who has an amazing inner life and imagination. Almond never makes it clear whether she has learning/social development issues or if she truely is just a unique thinker, which I think speaks to the notion of how our rigid and conformist education systems can stifle both types of children, who are much more unique than we can ever really know. This young girl may have problems communicating with others, but she is fiercely creative and inquisitive throughout her struggle. I really hope that this novel makes it way onto the reading lists of educators and parents, because I really feel like it captures a uniquely modern young mind. at the risk of fan-girling over David Almond.... really? why hasn't everyone read this? Mina is wickedly smart, funny and delightfully freakish. a testament to the glory of fringe-dwelling and the evils of the public school system. this book, along with Stargirl by Jerry Spinelli ought to be required reading for all pre-teen girls who and every woman who was one. well - maybe not so much for the Beautiful People...you just wouldn't understand. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

Molto curata l'edizione Salani, che introduce pagine nere, font di dimensione variabile e altre soluzioni grafiche per cercare di riprodurre le multiformi variazioni di un diario di una ragazzina curiosa e con la testa tra le nuvole.
