My Sweet Orange Tree / Meu Pe de Laranja Lima
My Sweet Orange Tree
Jose Mario de Vasconcelos
1968
Vasconcelos takes me into the world of Zeze. Zeze, the main character of the book, is a brilliant boy who lives in Bangu with his poor family.
Zeze is a mischievous boy and his behaviors always end with physical punishments. His curiosity about the real world makes him learn new things almost every day but sometimes it makes everyone mad. Vasconcelos describes the mindset of 5 years old boy perfectly.
His sensitivity and ability to observe and interpret impress everyone maybe it is the reason there are a lot of readers of different ages. I cannot describe the book as a "Children's Book" Recommended for adults who want to remember what is like to be a child again and all the confusion about the grown-up world.
