Title : The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time
Author : Mark Haddon
Pages : 288
Synopsis :
The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time is a murder mystery novel like no other. The detective, and narrator, is Christopher Boone. Christopher is fifteen and has Asperger's, a form of autism. He knows a very great deal about maths and very little about human beings. He loves lists, patterns and the truth. He hates the colours yellow and brown and being touched. He has never gone further than the end of the road on his own, but when he finds a neighbour's dog murdered he sets out on a terrifying journey which will turn his whole world upside down.
My Thougths :
This is a children's book, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. Funny, simple in the way it was told and exciting trying to imagine yourself as Christopher and what he has to go through. It's a light and refreshing read, and I would recommend it to children and adults alike.
