Explanation Toward Books Eggs

Nine-year-old David has recently lost his mother to a freak accident, his salesman father is constantly on the road, and he is letting his anger out on his grandmother. Sarcastic and bossy 13-year-old Primrose lives with her childlike, fortuneteller mother, and a framed picture is the only evidence of the father she never knew. Despite their differences, David and Primrose forge a tight yet tumultuous friendship, eventually helping each other deal with what is missing in their lives. This powerful, quirky novel about two very complicated, damaged children has much to say about friendship, loss, and recovery.

This book was a lovely reminder to my uterus that I never want children. A heartwarming tale that made absolute sure my womb was closed for business. Truly capturing the essence of being a kid, that I want to never witness firsthand. Wonderfully enlightening on just how terrible being a guardian to a child-devil can be. #proud2bgay

Very good book for young kids. It has some tough hurdles for them to work through.

This story is going to sit with me a while. I'm not sure how I feel about it. Jerry Spinelli writes such interesting stories and he writes so well, but I rarely feel uplifted when I finish his books. I feel pensive and kind of sad. Maybe it's because so many of his characters are lonely or loners and/or misfits. Eggs has a more uplifting ending than Loser or Maniac Magee or Stargirl (in my opinion), but the happier ending seems abrupt. So much of the book is two lost characters - David and
