Book Reviews of Secret Letters From 0 To 10 (Puffin Books)

Book Review: Wonderfully engaging!
Summary: 5 Stars

I don't know if it is the rhythm of the story, or the delightful characters and their changing relationships that enchanted me so in this story of Ernest and his completely boring, predictable world being upset by Victoria, the new girl in school.

Ernest has lived a clockwork life with his elderly grandmother and equally aged housekeeper for 10 years. That begins to change, when Victoria and her 13 brothers come into his life. He begins to stray from his dull routine, and one day, discovers a book in the grocery store. He has NEVER been to the grocery store until he helps Victoria, but on this fateful day, he discovers a book in the paperback rack that may have the answer to his life-long question; where is his father, and why did he leave him?

As Ernest pursues this quest, he finally begins to live life, bringing his grandmother along with him. Ernest does discover the answer to many of his questions, but more importantly, he, along with his grandmother, discover what it means to really live and love. "Secret Letters From 0 to 10" is a completely charming read.

Summary of Secret Letters From 0 To 10 (Puffin Books)

Ten-year-old Ernest lives a flat, colorless life. Each day is the same: he comes home right after school, eats a healthy snack, and does his homework. Enter Victoria, the new girl in class. Victoria instantly falls in love with Ernest, and bulldozes her way into his life. Much to Ernest's surprise, he likes it. Bit by bit, color seeps into Ernest's humdrum existence--and he begins to realize that life can hold an endless variety of love, friendship, adventure, and change. "Quirky characters, heightening suspense, and hilarious situations are deftly combined in this tender novel, which examines a few of the large and small ways people affect one another." --Booklist, starred review
