Guys, growing up is hard. Thankfully, Gaiman is able to walk us through it with ease. This story is definitely aimed at middle-graders, but great for all ages. It's not particularly complex, but still engaging. I had the joy of listening to it via audiobook narrated by the author with little musical interludes. So pleasant. Anyway. It was a fun read that might make you a little weepy at the end. 

My one complaint: I felt like it took a while to get going.
