LOVING BEN

Rating:
Summary: Great book!
Review: I first heard of this book when I had this book for literature. The title "Red Sky In The Morning" gives people a melancholy feel that just fits the theme of the book.
This is about a girl, Anna, who has a severely handicapped brother, Ben. Ben was more of intellectually disabled than physically and he brought great joy to her life, changing it drastically.
Through this book, you can actually empathize with Anna. It is also a very touching story with a great plot. I'd recommend it strongly to everyone!

Summary: Everyone should read it at least once.
Review: I Hated reading books until I came across this book<Red sky in the morning>.I loved the part when they wrote about Ben and how he was so cute.You could hardly guess he was born with Hydrocephalus.There was a part I hated and that was when Ben died.I was amazed at how Anna could create such a special bond with her Hydrocephalic brother.

Summary: A touching story for all readers
Review: This book is about how a girl called Anna copes with a handicapped brother and is absolutely wonderful. I studied it at school when it was called 'Red Sky in the Morning' and I loved it. The exploration of Anna's feelings is beautifully expressed and says neither too much nor too little. I cry every time I read it.

Summary: Loving Ben AKA Red Sky in the Morning
Review: This heart-warming book is about Anna's life during her early teens. Her mother gave birth to her younger brother, Ben, when she was 12. Unfortunately, he is severely disabled. Anna loves him very much and spends most of her time with him, taking care of him and teaching him to do things that normal kids could learn when they were younger. The parts I loved best about this book are the touching and sad parts as it seems so real, it could make you cry on and on without stopping... I would definitely recommend it to people between the ages of 12 to 15 as they would definitely relate to the characters.

Summary: A warm story, it fully touched my heart...
Review: When I was first introduced this book for Literature, I thought it would be like the rest of the Literature books-boring. However, when I started reading it, I realised it was not, it was filled with touching scenes. This story basically revolved around the main character called Anna. Her mother gave birth to a baby boy, Benedict or Ben in short, when she was 12. Ben was not born normal, as he was disabled, but this disability brought in lots of joy, fun and laughter to Anna. Throughout this book, I encountered some themes such as family relationships, relationships amongst classmates and friends, and romance...
This is definitely a book not to be missed, and near the ending, I was especially touched.... I would like to recommend this book to all between age nine to thirteen and...those who think this is another dumb book, you are wrong...
