To Kill a Mockingbird, by Harper Lee

http://www.theatlantic.com/unbound/classrev/mocking.htm

"To Kill A Mockingbird is a more successful piece of work. It is frankly and completely impossible, being told in the first person by a six-year-old girl with the prose style of a well-educated adult. Miss Lee has, to be sure, made an attempt to confine the information in the text to what Scout would actually know, but it is no more than a casual gesture toward plausibility."
