It wasn't just that it was wrong to do, or that it was considered incorrect. It was more than that--it didn't work.”
كون الكتاب قصير كان احد اسبابي لقرائته، ما كان عندي فكره انه القصه مقسمه على أجزاء وهذا الجزء الأول. ما عندي فكره إذا اكمل بالسلسلة ولا لا لانه شوي عندي فضول شنو راح يصير معاه القصة تتبع صبي عمره ثلاثة عشر سنه اسمه براين يجد نفسه وحيد بالبرية بعد حادث طائرة، والاداة الوحيده الي معاه اهي فأس فنتبع قصته وكيف سوف يواجه الصعوبات للبقاء على قيد الحياه أسلوب الكتابه بسيط وسهل، الاحداث نفسها كان طابعها شديد ونحن نتبع الصبي الصغير. بالنهاية كان حدث خل الكتاب وللقصة شوي مشوقه...more

الاحداث كانت ممتعه والمغامره كانت مشوقة جدا!! احببت طموحها وإصرارها، وعلاقاتها مع اصدقائها تشولاك وهاملت.
الحلو بالموضوع انه سمعتها وانا ما اعرف شي عنها فكان صدمه حلوه بالنسبه لي لما عرفت انها تتكمل عنو مواضيع كثيره مثل التقاليد وانها فكاهيه شوي، واكيد ما ننسى العمل الجماعي والخير مقابل الشر

“What do you want to be when you grow up?" "Kind," said the boy.”
“Always remember you matter, you're important and you are loved, and you bring to this world things no one else can.”
My Friend recommended this book for me to read specifically on my birthday. If you know me, I take recommendations very seriously. I followed her advice so quickly. It was the best thing I did for myself.
This graphic novel/children's book tells the story of four unusual friends, a boy, a mole, a fox, and a horse. They share truths about life as the boy searches for a home on his journey through the countryside on a spring day. The story of a boy and accompanied by exquisite artwork, the novel explores some significant such as self-acceptance, courage, friendship, and love. Sooner, not later, the boy learns that home is not always a fixed place.
I found the writing style to be well-written, with clear words. It shows that you do not need convoluted words to have a beautiful story. I loved all the characters: first, we have the boy, who is inquisitive and who feels homesick and a bit lost. The mole is small, enthusiastic, and seems to eat cake to feel better about himself. Also, The fox feels the hardness of life. And finally, the Horse who is gentle, kind, and full of wisdom.
If you are planning to read it, so do not ever hesitate. Pick up either the book or the audiobook. I read it twice and mostly loved the audiobook because the narrator was the author. This book has many lovely reminders. that we may forget with time. It shows that kindness and vulnerability is the best way to bring people closer....more

“Here’s the thing, Jackson. Life is messy. It’s complicated. It would be nice if life were always like this. But life is actually a lot more like this.You just have to keep trying.”
“Imaginary friends are like books. We're created, we're enjoyed, we're dog-eared and creased, and then we're tucked away until we're needed again.”
In real life i love animals but Katherine applegate made me love story that about animals and other creatures.
The story follows Jackson a 10 who is consumed with worry, Because he is seeing his parents flooding under a financial difficulties. Although that he is really young he already experienced these familiar adult stressors and remembers a time when his family was homeless. He is woken hard to protect his little sister from the fear and uncertainty that grips him. With all that happening Crenshaw appears, Jackson’s imaginary friend who he hasn’t seen since the family’s last financial crisis. We will see how his appearance will help Jackson.
This book was less than 300 pages but yet the author managed to have a good plot and character development. My favorite character is Crenshaw. I especially love his personality. My only downfall was that I hoped to see him more in the book. But, if we were to talk about the overall of the book, I find it excellent. I honestly cried so much with the ending.
I highly recommend not only this book but anything by katherine applegate. Her books are always delightful and give you a warm feeling. ...more
