5 stars :) 
 At first when I started reading this I put it straight down and started something else because I wasn't in the mood for something that required effort. 
 But when I did pick this up again and read it I loved it when I try to explain this book to friends it sounds so boring even I start to think why did I love this so much! 
 I wasn't to keen on the colour descriptions at first but have learned to like if not love them they make the book in some ways. After thinking about this, the main reason I love this book is everything put together, the descriptions, the story line, the characters and the sadness, it had joy it had good times but you could feel a shadow overcasting every line and it showed the strength and if not purity of children. We are not born with any type of hate it is taught and pushed on us by our environment. 
 This book makes you think and is all together written beautifully.
