11 posts | 8 read | 6 to read
Eine groe Geschichte ber einen kleinen Jungen mit einem besonderen Blick auf die Welt. Der neunjhrige Milo leidet unter Retinitis pigmentosa: Sein Sehvermgen lsst immer strker nach, und irgendwann wird er vollstndig erblinden. Aber noch sieht er die Welt wenn auch nur wie durch ein Nadelhr. Doch so bemerkt er Kleinigkeiten, die anderen entgehen. Als seine 92-jhrige Gromutter dement wird und in ein Altersheim umziehen muss, fallen Milo dort seltsame Vorgnge auf. Die Erwachsenen interessieren sich fr Milos Erkenntnisse nicht, und so bleiben ihm nur der Koch Tripi und sein Ferkel Hamlet, um ihm bei seiner Mission zu helfen. Milo ist nmlich entschlossen, seine Gromutter wieder nach Hause zu holen, die Machenschaften der Heimleiterin offenzulegen und vielleicht seine Eltern zu vershnen.

Oh this was such a lovely read😍 i think everybody who reads this will absolutely love milo. Milo is a little boy who has retinitis pigmentosa which means that one day he will be blind. I loved this book and I was cheering milo on all the way through! Really lovely, easy read! 😊

My problems with the story trace more to the publisher than to the author. I really wonder where the label “children‘s book” went to. If I had known that this is a children‘s book I wouldn‘t have borrowed the audiobook. I‘m sure the plot is perfect for children but for all others it‘s too much black and white.
For every problem there‘s an easy solution – which is a way too unfair method to deal with all the problems touched therein.

About two hours into this audiobook but I don‘t know if this is the kind of heart-warming story I expected it to be. 😟 Until now everything and everybody is drawn superficially, all is either good or bad. And I already am sure I know everything about the plot there is to know. 🙄 It‘s childish but not in a good, amusing way but in one that constantly provokes me to shake my head and murmur: “kitchen sink psychology”.

Such a sweet story; left me with tears in my eyes...

I'm glad of one thing though; i am glad that Milo got to see his baby sister Arabella and his Gran for the final time before he went completely blind... 😭

Similar to Mark Haddon's The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime, this book captures the adventure of Milo who tried to uncover the dirty secrets of a nursing home which his granny was in. A light read with many innocent plots and thoughts, truly a captivating book with important family issues. Loved it ❤️❤️❤️

An easy read. Very heartwarming and interesting to see things from Milo's perspective. It also reminds me on how as adults, we are often so caught up in life that we overlook the little things in life. At times, it is the little things that actually matter.
