Summary: The worst Way To Spend Your Summer Or Is It?
Review: The Worst Way To Spend Your Summer Or Is It? Four young black teens from New York are caught by the police spray painting a rail road car and are sentenced to work in an old folk's home for the summer. One of the young boys has been in trouble with the law several times before but finds he has more in common with the seniors from the home than the others. They are forced to be together, none or them liking the circumstances that brought them together; however, as they get to know each other they find their lives are changed. Earl, the boy who has been in trouble before is living with Steve and Steve's parents on a trial basis but wants to have a permanent home. The book is written as if Steve Perry is writing to his journal. If you like good humor mixed with serious problems dealing with old age then you would like this book as I did.

Review: This story is about a group of four kids that get into trouble with the law.As punishment the kids have to help the senior citizens that live at Micheaux House Senior citizens home.The senior citizens that live there are both black and white.After
reading this book you will find out that the senior citizens home might get closed down. In order to try to save the home the senior citizens decide to open a deli and the kids help.

I thought this book was funny because of the waythe people talk and the the words that they use. The pedicaments that the kids and the senior citizens get intoare pretty funny also.Plus the problem in this story probably happens every day,and this book tells you about a group of people that are different nationalities and age s worked together to try to save a senior citizens home. So all in all I thought this book was funny and realistic.

" The Adopted Kid"

This story is about a family that has lived their life
with one child and has done well. His name is Steve. He is 14 years old and enjoys his life with his friends; Hi-Note,
and Patty. Steve gets called into the living room one day and is asked many questions. It started off. "Me and your mother have given it a whole lot of thought, and we would like to bring another child into the house". That's when all the action began. I thought the book was very interesting. It let me know that a lot of people who are struggling with the same situation around the world every single day. The book would especially be good for young kids. Young kids would enjoy listening to a story like that. My favorite character in the story is Hi-Note. He tries his hardest to be tough with Steve's adopted brother Earl. Anyway, Hi-Notes personality is so predictable from my prospective. All through the story you can predict what he is going to do or say.
He kind of reminds me of myself. I like basketball and love to hang out with my best friend. I also like to pick fights with people that are smaller than me, but stronger.
