I think this book affected me more as an adult reader than it would have if I were a child, thanks to the nuances of the mother/son relationship. Chilid readers will be more captured by the Irish magic involved. Sort of a "Freaky Friday" with a twist. Through the alternating views of 12-year-old Patrick and his 40-year-old mother Bernadette, readers experience the impact of Bernadette's "disappearance" (she drinks what she believes is wine at her late mother's house and wakes up as her 12-year-old self living again with her mother). Bernadette enjoys being 12 but realizes it will take magic to undo the effect and that she will need to rely on Patrick to help her out. Meanwhile, Patrick as the oldest has to take on more responsibilities at home. When he gets the e-mails from his missing mother and her mysterious directives, he follows through with a level-headed practicality that's very likable. ( ) The premise of the book - that a mom who is turning 40 would be transformed back into being 12 again - is really fun and fascinating. I enjoyed the book, and many of my 5th grade students did too. I imagine that it will appeal even to kids up through 9th or 10th grade. I loved that technology played a big part of the mom-now-turned-12 being able to contact her son, a student in the school where her 12-year-old-self attends. Fun premise. Enough action and suspense to keep many kids reading. inga recensioner | lägg till en recension

She enrolls in her son's seventh-grade computer class in hopes of enlisting his help, but it's not that easy. . . . Patrick, Bernadette's oldest son, has no idea what happened to his mother, but he refuses to give up hope. Unless he can get her back, he faces a life of waiting on his brothers. Can Patrick do the impossible? Can he rescue his mother . . . and return his family's life to normal? Inga biblioteksbeskrivningar kunde hittas. |
