A review by colorfulleo92
The Ugly Little Boy by Isaac Asimov, Robert Silverberg

5.0

This is one of the books that meant the most for me as I grew up. Read it about 150years ago and loved it so dearly. It sparked an ever growing curiosity and desire to learn more about the world, humanity and science. I was so worried I wasn't going to enjoy it as intensely as I did back then but woohoo, I so did. It was wonderful getting back to a story I haven't been able to truly forget. Love the "mother/son" relationship forming between the caretaker and the neanderthal boy. Such an great story and the end was truly great. Wished I could read more to see what happened after that

This is a very special book for me. Haven't read it for around 13 years but I still remember the pure joy and excitement I feelt reading it and I so badly want to read it again. I don't even know if I would love it as intensely as I want to remember but I can't find it in any store or book app near me and that makes me sad...
