The Trouble with Goats and Sheep by Joanna Cannon
3.0
"My mother said I was at an awkward age. I didn't feel especially awkward, so I presumed she meant that it was awkward for them."
Grace’s precociousness was adorable and at times LOL funny—"It appeared that Jesus pulled a much bigger crowd if He provided garibaldis"—but I got a bit bored when the allegory became a bit too didactic and started feeling as judgmental as the neighbors on the Avenue. More subtlety would have made for a better morality tale. However, the little girl on the cover of this audio version could not be any cuter! And I definitely agree with her description of her local library: "It smelled of unturned pages and unseen adventures, and on every shelf were people I had yet to meet, and places I had yet to visit." Exactly!
