The Magical Imperfect

This is such a heartwarming book! It is about two kids who become friends despite their many differences. One of the kids, Malia, was diagnosed with a bad case of eczema that reached her face. Some of the kids even start calling her 'The Creature.' Then Etan comes, a kid who has recently lost his mother and hasn't talked since. When the two kids meet over Malia's dragon mailbox, Etan is determined that the magic healing clay his grandfather gave him will clear up all of Malia's eczema. And while all of this is happening, terrible earthquakes run throughout the town, breaking down buildings but forming new and stronger emotional bonds. This book is great for anyone who likes books written in verse. It is a wonderful book, although sad at parts.

It was so good I couldn´t put the book down until 1 in the morning and I finished it so easily. This story is so good and is an adventure with earthquakes and scales and more and more. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes an adventure and is fine with verses.

I liked that this book was written in verse. It made the story so much more fun!

I liked the deep emotional connection the whole town had with each other. Also the old and the new clay mixed together was a very cool concept of blending old world and new world. The mysterious little bits about the gpa and gma also didnt overwhelm me with back-story but left me curious and wondering all the time.

the book was so good because of its great story line and Malia was a strong character and the magic of the caly gave the story the whole point 9/10
