What's your favourite food? Who's your best friend? Have you tried to grow a rock? Aren't beards weird? Did you ever move house and miss where you used to live? Didn't a lot change when the pandemic started? My Sneezes Are Perfect is a collection of poems in the voice of a small boy who wants to tell you about all the things he's learning, all the time. During the book, he moves from the Netherlands to America and has to adjust to his new life there. Then Covid-19 hits and his world changes all over again...
