From Booklist

The anguish of a father who has AIDS and his pending death are painfully depicted in Bermejo's sensitive Spanish rendition, which resonates with the honesty and candor of the original title and includes the forthright use of insulting remarks, including maricón, marica, julay, jalandrón, and sarasa. As Liam, a perceptive teenager, slowly confronts his parents about family secrets, including his father's sexuality, and other taboos, he experiences disappointments and loneliness. His seemingly uncaring aunt and his parents' troubled marriage add to Liam's confusion, anger, and grief and make this a story with universal teen appeal. Grades 6-10. --Isabel Schon

En el ámbito juvenil ha publicado una treintena de títulos que han sido merecedores de prestigiosos premios como la Medalla Newbery o el Premio Andersen.El padre de Liam está enfermo y morirá pronto. Enfermo de SIDA, y eso es lo que Liam no quiere aceptar. Tampoco admitir que hace tres años que descubrió la verdad sobre su padre. Fue aquel día en la playa. La mañana en que rompío la cometa que él le regaló y la enterró en la arena. Sin embargo, la muerte de su padre dará a Liam la respuesta al sentido de su propia vida. Paula Fox nos ofrece un libro duro, directo y eficaz, que logra reflejar la complejidad de los sentimientos familiares que se mueven alrededor de temas tan reales como la homosexualidad, el sida, las relaciones extramatrimoniales y el choque generacional entre adolescentes y adultos.
