In the Eyes of a Boy: A Ten-Year-Old’s Story of Becoming a Little More Grown-Up

A little boy learns a little about what it’s like to be grown-up in Peggy L. Knets’s book, In the Eyes of a Boy, Forgiveness, the News, Climate Change and the Olympics. This book was featured in the 2016 Bologna Children’s Book Fair last April 4 to 7. The international gathering was held at the Bologna Fair Centre, Bologna, Italy.

Growing up is a tough adventure. When Tommy’s friend Billy and his family forget to go over for dinner, the ten-year-old boy begins to see just how tough growing up is. He is deeply hurt by their no-show. For that dinner, Tommy had made the spaghetti and meatballs all by himself. Later, Tommy’s parents begin to question the presence of TV in his life, concerned about his homework and everything else. Through all these, Tommy learns about forgiveness, the news, climate change, and the Olympics.

In the Eyes of a Boy will teach young readers about making wise decisions, especially in handling disappointment. This book will help children become aware of some important issues of today.
