What if a children's book is intended for grown ups? Well then, then What if? is the book we are discussing.
Jeremy Shuttle is one of the most likable characters I have come across in ages. This boy is still a boy. Not a vamped up hyper super man in a boy's body. The same goes for his best friend and almost girlfriend who is also still only a young girl. Certain parts of this book is written so exceptionally well that I was blown away by the true human insight that has been so vividly retold to us the readers.
I must say if I could recommend a book to a younger YA this would be it. If I could recommend it to older YA for the moral of the story, I would. If I could recommend it to others it would be all adults since the subject matter is truly deep and ingenious and depending on your age and life experience I believe this book has something to offer every body.
So hey, stop reading this review and get your copy today. Trust me, you will thank me.
The author although I have reason to believe this is not a recent photograph...dont ask.

About this author
Jeffrey's parents moved down to Florida from New York just in time to make him a native Floridian...one of the few remaining in the state from that halcyon era of the 60's.
Born under the sign of Gemini, he obtained degrees in appropriately opposite fields of Accounting and Advertising, though he claims not to have inspired the unfortunate term "creative accountant".
His career in writing, beginning with tear-inducing messages on family holiday cards, continued as editor of his college dorm newsletter, through various advertising positions. Despite the self-infliction of many years of Finance and Accounting work, he managed to squeeze out a regular newsletter for his Finance group whose sole purpose was to make its readers laugh. Needless to say, it had nothing to do with Accounting.
After a return to advertising and creative, Jeffrey finally finished his often-talked about young adult fantasy adventure novel, What If?, the first book in a trilogy about a young boy, Jeremy Shuttle, who is given a sketchbook that makes everything he draws in it become real.
Jeffrey currently lives comfortably in South Florida, driving with his windows down and wondering why so many people complain about the humidity.
