Window or Mirror Book

I have enjoyed reading The Third Mushroom recently. This is part of a series in which this is the second book, the first called The Fourteenth Goldfish. A window book means looking at a different world or out of a window which is a world that is nothing like yours. A mirror is a book that reflects on your life or you have connections with that book. The Third Mushroom is an interesting book because it’s a mix between a window AND a mirror. It is a mirror because it does have a relation to others life’s and a little of mine too. It’s about a girl whose parents are divorced and her grandpa figuring out how to turn into a teenager again. It also includes some stories that people can connect with and feel like they are not alone. For example she is a science lover who is very curious like her grandpa who was a former scientist, but it also does sprinkle in middle school drama, friends and some sad stories too. This also is a window book because well, it does have some fantasy because I mean you can’t really turn yourself into a teenager again you have to deal with old age, circle of life people. But this is an amazing series and I highly recommend it. Happy reading
