Dandelion Wine

by Ray Bradbury

Another of my "left overs" from my goodreads reviews.

So, this is the other side of Ray Bradbury - the non sci-fi one.

The book is made up of wonderful episodes in the lives of brothers Douglas and Tom that could have happened during one summer in the 1930s. Of course, there is too much going on for only one summer to hold - Bradbury himself addressed this in the foreword to the edition that I read. So, really, this is a 'best of' childhood summers.

The book is jockful of loveable characters and their little adventures - some hilarious, some sad, some scary.

7/10
