What would a novel written by an 8-year-old girl be like?
Mocky's Revinge answers that question, complete with comic
misspellings and childish misunderstandings. Set in a small
Ohio town in 1985, it tells the story, in the words of
third-grader Carrie Ann Watson, of how her gentle, wry,
openly gay Uncle Mocky overcomes the spiteful prejudice of
her mother's boyfriend Roy, and reconciles with her dying
grandfather. The result is odd, playful, funny, touching,
and entirely original.
