A review by tomesandtextiles
Kids of Appetite by David Arnold

5.0

5 stars!! 5 stars! 5. STARS.

I have discussed with several bloggers the difficulty in writing reviews and finding the words for books that you love. This is one of those books that I loved, so please excuse me as I blubber my way through this review.

There are books which can only be described as they’re own thesaurus. Just like the book flap hints, there are secret words and idioms shaped and defined by the characters in the story that give you new and useful proverbs to incorporate into your daily lingo. Kids of Appetite is such a book. It is a SUPER RACEHORSE (see what I did there?). Other terms this book will define and incorporate into your everyday language:

Sideways hug
Tiny paths going nowhere
Future automobile rental entreprenuer
Till we’re old-new
Hinton vortex
