I haven't read any books in this series and want to begin soon.

Clementine reminds me of so many little girls I've had in my classes. She brings humor to the situations she gets in.

This book was so funny to me because I remember a lot of the events Mr. Gantos talks about. For example, drive in movies and a neighbor who was always needing help.

I love to read books by authors who I have met. Mr. Selznick was so funny and kind when I took some students to meet him in 2006.

In Caitlin’s world, everything is black or white. Things are good or bad. Anything in between is confusing. That’s the stuff Caitlin’s older brother, Devon, has always explained. But now Devon’s dead and Dad is no help at all. Caitlin wants to get over it, but as an eleven-year-old girl with Asperger’s, she doesn’t know how. This book may help you understand someone who has Asperger's.

I have read this book so many times and have seen the movies more times than I can count. As a young reader, I didn't understand all the social issues that the book presents, but I enjoyed the relationship between Scout and her family.
