Una amistad improbable surge en esta novela entre Frank, viudo, gruñón y cascarrabias, y Red, un niño de 6 años que está sufriendo la reciente separación de sus padres y que se acaba de mudar a la casa de al lado. Esta novela, escrita con una apreciable calidez, nos permite viajar por los sentimientos que rigen a estos dos personajes, tales como la soledad, la tristeza, la inocencia, la gratitud… emociones de dos desconocidos que nos harán pasar de la risa al llanto, y viceversa. Nos recordará lo bonito que es actuar como una buena persona desinteresadamente y rebosar de bondad inocente.
