A book for parents and children to read together about a nine-year-old boy who sees a four-letter word everywhere but doesn’t really know what it means. A delight for kids who know; real data for those who don’t.”Freddy is real, his problem is real, and the resolution is believable.The book is timely, the writing is good and it is for children about children now. And perhaps most important, it affirms life and loving based on caring.”Psychology Today”A boy’s search for understanding a forbidden four-letter word (is) treated straightforwardly in this touching, unusual novel.”Scholastic Teacher
