My friend recommended this novel to me and now I owe her one because once I started reading Wolf Boy I had trouble putting it down. Right at the start you learn there's been a death in the family, which I thought was a vey "honest" approach, but the book doesn't stay somber for too long, and soon I was cheeering for each of the characters, especially 13-year-olf Stephen, the main subject of the book, and his odd girlfriend, Nicole. I loved these people! And I also loved the comics, which you don't expect in book like this but they fit quite well, and added a second level to the story. The only thing I didn't love was the bookjacket, yeah I minor thing I know. The book itself is quite attractive and the story is the best one I've read so far this year. Highly recommended.
