The ramblings of a full-time mother and writer who home-schools with two sons, two dogs, one cat, one snake, and a tarantula.
1. Crash by Jerry Spinelli

CrashCrash by Jerry Spinelli


My rating: 3 of 5 stars


This is a good coming of age story for middle school students. John Coogan, "Crash," is a seventh grade athlete who begins the story as a very self-centered person. As the book progresses, he is forced - due to a family medical emergency - to grow up a little. He begins to see how his actions could effect other people. I would recommend this story to anyone who is middle school or older. It probably has more appeal to male readers, but females could enjoy it as well.
