It's not often that I give a children's book 5 stars. Especially not a children's book I read for the first time at the ripe old age of 30 ;) But just once in a blue moon it's justified, and I do believe this to be one of those instances.

The book's well written - or at least well translated, since I read it in Danish. It's aimed at children, but the language isn't 'dumbed down' in any way. The characters are well described, and although not exactly likely, they make the best out of being entertaining stereotypes - especially the hit-man, who turns out to have more heart than brain.

However, the best thing about the book is the extremely original plot - the idea of an 11-year-old shrink, who in 24 hours becomes so popular that the entire of NYC's population line up to make an appointment with her is so ridiculous and far out that I couldn't not love it.

Children's books are usually best when read in the rosy light of nostalgia, but that is definitely not necessary here.

What a great read - I'm very much looking forward to the second book in the series - Quenton Cohen Professional Chef. I really liked the character development, and the plot kept me guessing as to whom Mr who really was. But the big question is - did Ms Musashi survive?
