Narration As 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.

It was SUCH A CUTE BOOK! The ending didn't really close up the book, but it left happy thoughts of what will happen to the main characters in the future.

A story of loss, friendship and emotional recovery. David, a 9 year old boy who is bitter over the loss of his mother, crosses paths with Primrose, a rebellious 13 year old girl who lost her father, one fateful day and the encounter changes their lives. They become friends, in a hate relationship, and stay out late garbage hunting. They are both sourpusses and often call each other names. They break their friendship one day after they verbally attack each others' pain of loss. Months pass before

I would think someone who lost his mother at age nine would make a much more sympathetic character, but actually NONE of the characters in Eggs are very likable at all.David, who loses his mother to a freak accident almost a year before the book opens comes off not as a grieving child, but as hateful, ungrateful, and mean person with a LOT of twisted notions about death. The child really needs therapy! Unfortunately, what he gets is shipped off to live with his paternal grandmother while his dad

Such an amazing book! One of Jerry Spinellis best books!

This book was interesting how David said in the beginning, "I don't even like eggs..." I just got me hooked right away. I just couldn't stop reading it with Sada.

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

I loved Eggs. Loved, loved, loved it for its injured soul and complicated characters and simple imagery. I can see why many readers were put off by it and why its viewed as one of his minor novels: theres a darkness and coarseness to the book. Its characters are often unpleasant, and theres no riveting plot or easily summed-up moral.The central characters of Eggs are nine-year-old Dave and thirteen-year-old Primrose. Both are dealing with some parental loneliness: Daves mom died in a freak
