Mick Harte Was Here

Rating:
Summary: This book was sad and infomative at the same time.
Review: This is a remarkable book about a 7th grade girl who's brother{only 10 months younger} dies. It tells the story of how he ran into the back of a tuck that was passing by. In one part of this book there's a line that really killed me. It was "Thats it! There wasn't a scratch on him. It was a head injury." I really liked this book, but the first time I read it I cried. I loved this book!!

Summary: This was a candid, heartfelt story. I laughed & cried !!
Review: My 11 yr old daughter & I read this book recently and both of us laughed & cried all the way through it !! Just coincidentally she had recently lost a friend as a result of an auto/pedestrian accident. This book was so unbelievably true to life. It helped her understand more about the grieving process, and she was able to talk with me about things that were bothering her regarding this tragedy. The timing of this book could not have been better. It was great therapy for both of us. I can't wait to read other books by Ms. Park!! I recommend this book to all children 10-15, and their Moms, too!!

Summary: This was a funny, happy and sad book.
Review: This was a great book. everytime i read it i cry. Almost everyone in my class has read it. The book review was fetured in my school's news paper. I think if that happened to my brothers i wounldn't be able to go on. I think it really makes u think about how u could hate your brother or sister to no end but when their gone u wish they were still alive and with you.

Review: This is the best book I have ever read. It almost made me cry at times. I read it many times and it still get's to me. My cousin is reading it right now. I would like to thank Barbra Park for writing such a touching story. I don't think anyone could ever write a better book. If you write another book I will get it. It was great!!!

Summary: 'This was the helmet he said made him look like a dork...'
Review: When I was in the 3rd grade (I'm now in the 8th grade) I read this book, and I loved it! It made me laugh & cry. It shows how 13 year old Phoebe deals with her brothers death. No one ever imagined a kid like Mick would die...not the one that scared his mom by putting a ceramic eye in her chicken, the kid that went trick-or-treating as Thomas Crapper, the inventor of the flush toilet, the kid that did a crazy solo dance in a play because 'the music got in his pants', not the kid that had never worn his helmet because he had said it 'made him look like a dork'...

Summary: I laughed, I cried, I laughed again.
Review: Really, this is a GREAT book. It's about Phobe Harte, who had about the funniest person in the world for a brother. It is hilarious. Then her brother dies and it's awful, but then she goes into her rememberance of him and it's hilarious again. Seriously I BEG you to read this book. Even the boy's funeral is funny! Please read this book. If I knew you I'd give you my copy, but I don't know you so I can't. This is a book everyone should read.
