JackeyJack is a boy you will love forever. He tells his tale from the eyes of a five year old child who has known nothing but Room. This is a strange and wonderful tale that will capture your imagination and make you grateful for the space that you exist in.
The narrator of a story certainly influences how a story is told. I don't know that I have ever read a book from the perspective of a child as young as Jack. His honesty and wonder in sharing his tale makes this book a great read. The innocence of a child who has known nothing but Room is heart-wrenching, and yet, Jack knows nothing else and so his acceptance of his dilemma is complete.
Challenge yourself to read this unique text and I would assert, you won't be disappointed. Recommended to me by several good friends, I was glad to have been introduced to a boy who will stay in my memory for a very, very long time.
As always, happy reading!
