My eight year olds loved this book. It was a great family read aloud.

An enjoyable, heartwarming story centered on a child grappling with OCD. It was interesting to see the world through Felix's eyes and how his life is impacted by a newfound friendship with Charlie. This was a fun read-aloud accompanied by cute illustrations.

Ma pean tõdema, et mulle pigem meeldis see raamat kui et ei meeldinud.
Väga äge oli näha obsessiiv-kompulsiivse häire esindatust nii lähedalt ja põhjalikult. Raamat pakkus ka mõningaid pealiskaudseid nõuandeid neile, kes seda häiret ise kogevad. Kui tihti raamatud, mis käsitlevad haiguseid on head lugemiseks neile, kes ise seda ei koge, et õppida mõistma teisi, siis see raamat on minu hinnangul pigem ideaalne just neile, kes seda sama läbi elavad, et nad näeksid, et nendesuguseid on veel, et teistel on ka selliseid raskuseid ja muresid.
Miinuseks oli see, et võib-olla oli raamat liiialt haiguse keskne. Praktiliselt muid asju seal ei toimunudki, iga peategelase väline sündmus oli vajalik vaid selleks, et näidata peategelase haiguse erinevaid väljendusviise.

My 8 yo daughter loved this sweet and funny story about a boy suffering from anxiety and OCD. She especially loved the touch of Felix-approved twist on chapter numbers and she also thought his spunky friend Charlie was totally awesome (she's already planning a World Book Day costume based on Charlie, which is her highest form of praise!). A great story for teaching her empathy.
