Great perspective shifting book for all ages. It really made me think that I have in the past been one of those neighbors that passed judgment about trivial things. This was really a good reminder that people have stories and different perspectives and in the end, we just need to look for the good.

Short and sweet and unexpected. I laughed and I cried and enjoyed how Bryce and Juli flipped.
