A Crooked Kind of Perfect by Linda Urban

This book was a fun, quick read. Zoe really wants to play the piano, but instead, her father gets her a Perfectone organ. Turns out Zoe has aptitude for keyboard playing. Zoe's dad is a stay at home dad. It never said why in the book, but he doesn't seem to cope well with life outside of their house. Zoe also makes some new friends at school, but they aren't who you'd expect. This book should appeal to both girls and boys, despite the cover.

Genre: realistic fiction, humor

Topics: piano lessons, organ, music, family life, school life, friendship, baking, humor

Mrs. Beckwith's Rating: 5 of 5

  1. I read that book also. It's a very interesting book, but kind of boring.

  2. I really like this book because of the totally unique dad, and the roller coaster of feelings. It was also very fun and kept my interest throughout the book.
