Cyrille Renouvin _yrille_enouvin — Knucklehead: Tall Tales and Almost True Stories of Growing up Scieszka by Jon Scieszka Published by Viking 2008 Non-Fiction: Autobiography Jon Scieszka tells tales of his childhood in Knucklehead. The book is very funny and especially appealing to young boys. Reluctant readers can benefit from the structure of the book: short chapters that really can be read in any order. They will also find Scieszka's memories of his childhood easy to read and relate to. There is a great deal of intimacy established between the author and the reader; a child may feel that he or she is the one the stories have been written explicitly for. It is encouraging to the child and they may desire to read more of Scieszka's books or other author biographies. Jon grew up in Michigan with his mother, father and five other brothers: Jim, Tom, Gregg, Brian and Jeff. The boys got into a lot of trouble growing up, but also had an immense amount of fun. Being the second oldest, Jon spent plenty of time tricking and tormenting his younger brothers. My favorite chapter was when Jon was in school and he started laughing in class. The teacher asked him the classic, "Would you like to share what is so funny with the class" line and Jon decided to tell the joke. It shocked his teacher, but got a big laugh from his classmates. This story is illustrative of the universality found in all the stories and that young boys or even girls with siblings can easily relate to them. If kids have read Scieszka's books before then they will surely enjoy seeing a real face behind the author's name found on the cover. There are a lot of photographs used in the book, which also help in creating a very personal relationship with the reader. If a child learns an author is a real person and may have shared similar experiences, it has the power to take their reading experience to the next level.

Darrell Walker dcw — Historical fiction set on Cape Cod surrounding the famous Sandwich Glass Factory. As a reader, I was slightly more interested in the female friend of the male protagonist, however.

Amber Newland _ewland_esign — This was a glimpse into the complexities of the Middle East. I know I tend to simplify the situation through my anti-war, anti-American involvement lens. Dexter Filkins does a great job at relaying the stories of hurting people, on all "sides".

Elena Avanez elenaavanez — I enjoyed this more than I expected to - and since I enjoy fantasy and magic, I don't know why I was so reluctant, altho I think it had something to do with expecting to be disappointed after all the hype. But it was fun, it was realistic about behaviors of pre-teens, and solving problems needed cooperation and teamwork by the students, which made Harry part of a team in more than name, and I think was one of the main draws for me. Now that I've begun, I will continue the series, and look forward to the year-by-year growth of all the students.

Benedict Reyna benedictreyna — Great summer read with historical details. If you travel to Cape Cod year after year as I do, you'll enjoy reading this.

Luca Zago luca8379 — Good story, quick read.
