Book Review of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time

The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time


A novel about autism and the workings of the mind. Christopher knows all the countries of the world and their capitals and every prime number up to 7,057. He relates well to animals but has no understanding of human emotions. He cannot stand to be touched and he hates the color yellow. This is a story of Christopher's quest to investigate the suspicious death of a neighborhood dog. It is very funny and wise.
