My View: A strong story. Told from the view of a genius who will never known it. I especially liked this book for how Haddon neatly blends traditional storytelling with Christopher's unique perspective. Written flawlessly without fear, reserve, or sugar-coating, this book has an old-fashioned flavor being expressed from a new viewpoint.

It was recommended to me by someone who's in college studying to be a Special Ed teacher. But I'd recommend it to any high schooler who I think could appreciate it and learn from it and empathize with the storyteller.

No, but I guess it could be done. You'd need some strong direction.
