Onion John by Joseph Krumgold
4.0

God, this book is so weird!

I loved it.

It's about a boy who befriends an adult Eastern European immigrant in small town New Jersey in the 60s.

I loved that I went into this book cold. It unfolded in a way I really didn't expect and I feel like childrens' lit is so homogenized now that there just aren't many books like this.
