"Teacher says amoeba is a shape-changing parasite that can only be seen under a microscope! My dad changes his appearance too. Does that make him an amoeba?"
A daughter's diary revealing every detail of life with her father, whom she
likens to an amoeba:
My dad loves to smoke. He is like a chimney and we live in a big cloud of smog.
Dad skips dinner because he is too busy, mom says he is a working machine.
Dad stays up all night typing at his computer, mom says he is an owl.
Dad once lost his temper, mom said he changed into another person.
A bitter-sweet tale, as seen through the eyes of a child. What seems small
and ordinary is magnified into something large and extraordinary from her
perspective.
Following Ah Dull & Little Dragon and Little Fish, Make Friends With
Puppet concludes its
single-parent trilogy.
