"It's amazing how pervasive food is. Every second commercial is for food. Every second TV episode takes place around a meal. In the city, you can't go ten feet without seeing or smelling a restaurant. There are 20 foot high hamburgers up on billboards. I am acutely aware of food, and its omnipresence is astounding."

A childs eyes
I read this the first time in school as one of our listed readers, and fell in love..... It's written so well that I can "feel" what everyone is thinking and feeling, why they react the way they do - I get angry and hurt when things go wrong ... maybe it's because I know the book inside out by now ... or maybe it's just because it's written so well ... doesn't matter. I've learnt so much about life from this book! I read it every year and cry by myself for the misunderstood life's lost - I remind myself that you never kill a mocking bird (I know I know lol) to not judge before you have not walked in that persons shoes and always remember that we all have a little Boo in us. Truly amazing - life altering book this!!

The way the relationship between the father and his kids is beautifully depicted. More so, cos it's being narrated by the li'l girl.
