This is one of those books that take you into the story, where you feel for the characters, their suffering and their joy.
His journey to find love, happiness, confusion and even hatred sometimes is, very close to what a human has through life. It takes you by the hand and, even if you didn't learn to love David, he becomes that friend which never takes your advice, but which you're still there for.

Uno de los clásicos de literatura para niños que siempre guardará un lugar en mi corazón.
Es un libro que he releído en varias ocasiones y que continuaré leyendo en el futuro.
Es una historia divertida, llena de disparates y que te provocará muchas, muchas sonrisas.
