[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is so much time for them to grow up, why are SO many people rushing it?[/quote] This is my problem with these books. I'm a liberal. I feel that kids have been robbed of their childhoods by being forced to think about all of these adult issues. Not just this -- violence, war, global warming. Some things are not meant for kids to think about. It's a burden to them, when it should be our burden as the adults supposedly running the show. Also the books are not classics. They're not well written. They're just meh books about subjects that are trendy.[/quote] This isn't a bleak book though. It's a book about a sixth grader dealing with having a friend who is mean and the fact that other kids have crushes and he doesn't. It's about very normal middle school experiences, not the Holocaust.[/quote]
