Stars: 4
Review by: tandtmom
I enjoy keeping up to date with middle grade novels because they're fun and light-hearted. This was an adorable story about a young girl who describes herself as a cynic, caught in a very unusual situation. Her parents are divorced; her mother writes romance novels and her father, well, is quite unusual in that he is quite quirky, but a good-hearted man. Flora observes a squirrel in her neighborhood being vacuumed up. Not your typical day. What happens after the vacuum incident is strange, but DiCamillo ties everything in quite nicely. Should be a must read for middle grade students.
