Do You like book Building Blocks (2002)?
I read this book again and kind of skimmed through it a bit too fast. In this book Brann thinks his father is weak. He goes back in time somehow and meets his father as a kid and becomes friends with him.It's a good book but people are such ASSHOLES to children. And it's socially acceptable. Even nowadays people will go on and on about how some child needs an ass whooping even if the kid is 2 years old and can barely walk. It's not as if Kevin, Brann's father hit him. Really, the poor lad was beaten when he was a kid and forced to care for his siblings while his mother had more babies for her and his father to torment and disrespect and disregard their feelings.I hate that!

This book is about a boy named Brann Connell who’s going through a tough time. His parents are always fighting. Seems to Brann his dad could stand up for himself more, instead of building a wall of excuses to hide from. Since Brann was born, his dad has been the same. Brann had never imagined that he would actually get the chance to find out. For some reason Brann is taken back into time with his father as a younger person. In that adventure Brann finds out that there is more to his father then anyone knew.I would recommend this book to other people. For the first 30 pages, the book got off to a somewhat slow start, but after that it became extremely good.If i were to rate this book out of ten, i would give it a sever. The only reason why it isnt higher is because of the slow beginning start.

This was one of those books that you pick up, look at it and read the cover while thinking there definitely isn't going to be much of a story to this. And then you start to read it and you are caught up by the story itself. The characters were a bit flat and even though it seemed like Brann was starting to get better he almost always fell back into his ways. Kevin never seemed to get much life even when Brann found out why he "seemed so good" and the whole rest of the family just made you want to cringe. The reading itself was easy and simple to follow while I love the fact that there is so much wisdom that can be found in the book itself about life.
