Outstanding writing
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
As a 54 year old librarian and writer, I was amazed at the author's ability to maintain the voice of an 11 year old narrator and tell the story and grow the characters. This is an easy-to-read book and very charming. It must have taken the author years to write because it reads like not-reading, like you are standing there watching the characters live.Highly recommended!

This was a wonderful story of forbidden friendship, and how love develops between an uncle and his orphaned nephew and what it can do to their relationship. The orphan went from almost nothing to everything he could dream of.The book was very interesting all the way through, and had an ending that made me want to cry almost. The book is well written for all ages.
My favorite book of all time!

I am an eighth grader at Lucille Erwin Middle School and I have recently completed the book, "The Robber and Me". I fell in love with this book. It literally became impossible for me to put it down! I was so intrigued with Josef Holub's style of writing because of the way it incorporated passion, mystery, drama, and comedy. This book needs to be on your "must read" list, because it is incredibly dazzling!
Brendan says, "This is a GREAT book!"
