I laughed!
I think this book is very interesting. It tells about a real pearsons past, which means it's a autobiography. I love the book!

Perfect for ages 8 - 12
I adore Boy tales of childhood because, as a child of 10, a little older than he in most of the story, I completely understand his point of view. It is violent because of several very graphic descriptions of school canings, and it send out bad examples with for example the great mouse plot, but it is educational. It teaches children not to get mad. To get even. I rate this book 5* because it is funny and silly as well as serious and understanding with true emotion.
