Micks sister gets mad at him and he needs her to ride his bike home but she can't because she has soccer practice.So they get into a hudge fight.So he had to ride home himself and he was so mad that he fell into a really steep hole and died.

Summary: Tear-jerker!
Review: This book was so hard to put down! It made me bawl. Maybe some people don't like that kind of story, but I love it! It makes a person think about losing a sibling or anyone for that matter. It reminded me of my relationship with my brother. I have to say this again, I love this book!

Summary: Mick Harte was here review
Review: This book was depressing but extremly well written. This book I took emtionally and seriouslly which makes a good book a great one. The only thing I could of done to make this book better was to leave out the swearing. But having an extremly hard life like Phoebe did as the reader's point of view I can understand why she did. Living in an 8th grade world with a lost family member who would still be there if he had only wore his helmet. Once you think about it hard it almost maakes you cry you know? As the reader I understood this book perfectly and deserves 5 stars indeed.

Rating: 4 stars

Summary: Fantastic book about a girl dealing with her brother's death
Review: Mick Harte Was Here by Barbara Parks is a another book I just devoured. It's a story of a 12-year-old girl named Phoebe who just lost her brother when he was in a horrible bike accident. Throughout this book, Phoebe tells the reader about her younger brother Mick and how funny or annoying was. Even though Mick is dead, it's almost as if you really get to know him. All of the truth in Mick Harte Was Here makes it a wonderful sad story.

Barbara Parks must have lost a very close person during here life before; it must have been hard for her even though it paid off by making such a wonderful book! Barbara did a fantastic job making the charactors in this book so real. Phoebe goes through all of the stages of a death that any real person would go through. The emotions were written in great detail. There isn't much I disagree with because all of the happenings seemed like it would really happen in that situation.

Overall, Barbara Parks' Mick Harte Was Here is a great story that will help the reader better understand the grief of losing a loved one. She made me experience the agony of death right along with Phoebe. I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys stories about depessing, yet real struggles.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I laughed and cried at the same time
Review: When I was in fourth grade I read Mick Harte was here... in two days. I found it to be one of the funniest books I've ever read, and one of the saddest at the same time. I'm now in eighth grade. Recently my English teacher asked my class to write a letter to the author of the book that has most deeply affected of lives and the philosiphy of our lives. Right away I knew that Mick Harte was the best choice for me. I hope that everybody gets the chance to read this book, it's a winner!

Rating: 5 stars
