Summary: Sharon Creech Does It Again!
Review: The Wanderer was extremely well thought out and was another of Sharon Creech's wonderful novels! As they travel to Grandpa's house in England on a sail boat the uncles learn to enjoy each other's company and they teach each other various helpful things in life. Definetly another award winner for Creech as she unfolds the story of Sophie and her all male crew of relatives.(this review was written by a 7th grade student in an after school reading circle!)

Summary: Great Read to Curl up with on a rainy day!
Review: The structure of the story isn't one you'd find in some other dusty random books lying around. This story follows a 13 year old orphan girl all the way accross the Atlantic ocean to visit her, Grandfather Bombie. through journal entries by her and her 13 year old cousin, Cody. Sophie, the pre-teen, is an energetic girl who constanly is proving her ability to do the tasks at hand only a ship would require to her snoty adopted Uncles. Sophie proves her-self worthy when duty calls during a violent storm in the middle of the ocean where no-one can save them except the people still on board.

Summary: Awesome
Review: The Wanderer by Sharon Creech is one of the best books I have ever read. I thought it was very exciting listening to Sophie and Cody's story of how they sailedover the ocean to meet their grandfather, Bompie. I think it had a very nice ending with hopes of new adventures. If you read this book you will fall in love with its illustrations and escapades.

Summary: No likey, no likey, no likey
Review: THE WANDERER ... is very similar to the author's WALK TWO MOONS. If you like Creech's style, which tends to be a bit cutesy, then you'll like this book too. If you don't, stop reading here.Sophie is meant to be humorous and quirky and sensitive, but she simply comes across as annoying. Her cousin Cody is uncomfortably odd -- it's not clear what his age is at all -- but at least he's more likable. The storm in the middle is the best part. The rest is filler.

Summary: Wander
Review: I have been a fan of Sharon Creech ever since i read Walk two moons but this one was probaly the best. I really liked having the point of view of Sopie and then of Cody. It made it much deeper. This is basically a story about Sopie coming to realize what her life really is and her trying to pull out of the world that she created for herself to ignore her loses. Sophie has to do this well dealing with her lazy uncle, and his charming son, and her way too organized other uncle and his son. It was a great book.

Summary: A most excellent adventure....
Review: A Young girl becomes enthralled with the sea.. a trip with her relatives to go see her grandfather. Stories they don't think she could ever know about him - she does. Yet Her own story she doesn't know - and the adults seem to be reluctant to tell it. A trip they don't think that they will survive they do. Each with a story to tell. The book told from journal entries by two of the main characters is an effective way to tell it. You get to see what each is feeling - what they think the others are feeling... How they react to what each one does - the different points of view of the same events. The big storm they survive through... The lost loves discovered and then lost again? The secrets of the family revealed and solutions found. This book I would put at the top of the reading pile by the side of my bed. Finish what you are reading and be sure to start this one next. I've read it twice in the past couple of days to make sure I caught all the details... All the thoughts and all the feelings.

Summary: Report on the Wanderer
Review: Report on The Wanderer By: Sharon Creech Do you dare to sail across the ocean? Sophie,her three uncles, and two cousins sail across the ocean on a sailboat to Ireland seeking their grandfather, Bompie. Along the way they stop at cool places, where they explore and discover. They also meet neat people who tell them incredible stories about their lives or scary stories about the island they were on. And they find out things about each other they never new before,like what happened to Sophie's parents and that their uncle Dock wanted to be an artist before he went to college. I give The Wanderer five stars because The Wanderer is a great book and the writing style is very unique and neat. This book is set up as two dog logs Sophie and one of her cousins wrote on the sail boat. I think that the way the book is set up makes it more fun to read and more exciting. The Wanderer is my new favorite book! Book Report By: Alyssa R.

Summary: Wonderfulll!
Review: I loved reading The Wanderer. I've also read Bloomability, Chasing Redbird, and Absolutely Normal Chaos. Maybe if could have been better concealed about Sophie's past, but still it was good. I wish she had described the boat more. The art was neat, and I liked how Cody wrote too.

Summary: A Great Adventure on the Water
Review: Perhaps it was because my 10 year old daughter just started sailing. Or perhaps it's because she has just started really enjoying reading. But, in any event, we both really enjoyed reading this book to each other. Creech's mystery slowly unfolds amidst sailing adventures, some reminiscent of The Perfect Storm, as she develops the two wonderfully free spirited, yet very different, teenage personalities of Sophie and Cody. Sophie's mysterious past often clashes with Cody's out there and sometimes irrating personality, but in the end their commonalities bind them, and teach the adults on board a thing or two in the process. You don't need to be a sailor to like this book, just sit back and enjoy the sail-- young and old!

Summary: Journey Through a Magical Book
Review: This was not the first book I have read by this author yet it was my favorite. Tha Main Character, Sophie is a very complex person. She loves to learn and has a vivid imagination. The adventure her and the fellow characters go through is very intresting told through journey entries it lets you be kind of nosy going through their journal. I would recommend this book not only because it captures your attention.....,but because it takes you to places you may never have imagined.
