Swiv is given the task of writing to her absent father about life in her house by her grandmother, Elvira, who is teaching her after Swiv was expelled from school. Swiv’s mother is pregnant and in the later stages of her pregnancy. Three generations living under one roof make for interesting writing for Swiv. She writes in a rambling way which is both entertaining and endearing. Try not to laugh at times or not have a smile on your face during other times.
There is heart here, there is also a young girl wise beyond her years, who makes observations and has a close bond with her grandmother. There is a bit of goofy, zany actions which will entertain and have you shaking your head.
This is an endearing, quirky, and at times goofy book about family, their antics, their tribulations, and their bond.
