We are convinced that both audiences will recognise it as one of those very rare books that change the way you see everything. The novel is being published simultaneously for adults by Jonathan Cape and for children by David Fickling, publisher of Philip Pullman. Christopher is a brilliant creation, and Mark Haddon's depiction of his world is deeply moving, very funny and utterly convincing. He has never gone further than the end of the road on his own, but when he finds a neighbour's dog murdered he sets out on a terrifying journey which will turn his whole world upside down. He hates the colours yellow and brown and being touched. He knows a very great deal about maths and very little about human beings. Christopher is fifteen and has Asperger's, a form of autism. The detective, and narrator, is Christopher Boone. There was a garden fork sticking out of the dog.'The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time is a murder mystery novel like no other. He has fewer behavioral problems now, but his parents used to yell at each other and at him about the things he would do. It looked as if it was running on its side, the way dogs run when they think they are chasing a cat in a dream. Analysis Christopher used to think that his parents would get divorced, because they argued so often about his behavioral problems, such as screaming, breaking things, and refusing to touch anything brown or yellow. 'The dog was lying on the grass in the middle of the lawn in front of Mrs Shears' house. Uh oh, Froggy! Here comes the ball! Budding soccer players and Froggy's many fans will welcome Froggy's latest hilarious adventure. All Froggy has to do is remember the rule: "Head it! Boot it! Knee it! Shoot it! BUT DON'T USE YOUR HANDS!" But Froggy's busy doing cartwheels and picking daisies. His soccer team is playing the Wild Things for the City Cup. It's the day of the big game, and Froggy is ready.
