The background of poetry, art and animation was just confusing and not explained well. I have two small children so I know my 7 yr old and his friends wouldn't even speak like this. His character sometimes sounds like a pre-teen with smart ass comments and sometimes sounds like a kindergartener. Her son, Timby, is supposed to be 8, but I didn't find out til half way thru. I thought I was reading it from someone else's view but that wasnt it either. It also goes from 1st person to 3rd person. It's like random thoughts and flashbacks everywhere, some with no purpose or connection. I don't like the protagonist but I understand that's a character and doesn't matter if I identify with them. It was the writing style that I could not get over. I loved the author's other book - Bernadette. This is possibly the most confusing book I've ever read.
