Summary: Great book
Review: The major strength of this book is the way the author uses multiple characters' first-person narrations to paint the picture of the multi-dimensional characters and setting. The book is an excellent illustration of the saying that we are all the main characters of our own dramas, and see things from our own perspectives, justifying our own beliefs and actions.
Aside from that, the struggle of those close to Benjie to keep him out of the drug culture is a compelling story.

Summary: Sade's Review
Review: The novel "A Hero Ain't Nothin But A Sandwich" is a great novel.I enjoyed reading it. This novel is about a young boy name Benjie who is growing up in a gang bang niegborhood. Benjie has been introduced to alot of bad things like drugs(herion). Benjie is trying to deal with school related activites and the temptations of doing drugs. Beening the age that Benjie is, he has alot of people influencing him to do things he knows that he should not do. This novel is so interesting in many differnet ways because it tells the book from different points of views, like his mom, grandma, best friend, and other people. You get to find out their thoughts on life and on Benjie. To find out if Benjie gets hooked on drugs of does the right thing ,you should read this novel.

Summary: Boring...Boring....Boring
Review: This book is not even considered a story. All it is all about is about Benji. There is no rising action or climax. It's really just an exposition of a book.

Summary: Heart breaking to know a 13 year old is hooked on Heroine.
Review: This story broke my heart and made me realize the problems Amrica is facing today. To hear about the life of a 13 year old who is addicted to heroine and has done many other drugs frightened me tremendously.

Summary: book review by APL
Review: ~A hero ain~{!/~}t nothing but a sandwich is a great book. I was published in 1973 and it was written by Alice Childress. It was a great book back then, but now there is just a lot of better books. To me it is a boring book, because it mostly the people in the chapter talk about themselves, and some other people that they know. I don~{!/~}t really see anything that has to do with hero or heroin, mostly different people talking about their selves. The book is about Benjie, but I see only a few~~ chapters that he is talking, and some other chapters is about his friend, mom, dad, teacher, and grandma, and some other people. I think the author wrote this book to tell how the family members feel about their kids when they turn 13, because a lot of kids change when they are 13.~
