Read this with our grandchildren. We all loved it and had to find the movie, which was close enough to the spirit of the book to get an approval from us.

I read this book when it first came out and my children were elementary school. This is an awesome tale of friendship by two social outcasts who become the best of friends and feed each other hope for better times. There is a movie based on this book as well and is excellent.
