KILL THE TEACHER'S PET

Summary: Teacher's Pet
Review: First of all, in correction to the reader from Minnesota, the main character's name is Lenny not Joe. And Lenny doesn't hear about the murders on the news, he has a scrap book with clippings from all over the country, linking the killer to each one. In response to the editorial, yes, the characters do lack some build, especially considering their behavior. But let's take into account that this book was made for young adults, so therefore could not expand on some of the elements that Stephen King, Dean Koontz, and other adult novels can. Though it lacks in some suspense, I feel this book has been one of the most chilling I have ever read. Even years later, with me turning to more deeper horror stories and writers such as Ludlum and Margaret Weis, I have never been able to clear my mind of this short, yet very gripping story of a boy's struggle to survive. The way Locke tells the story is very intense, especially in the eyes of a younger audience. This is a story other young adult writers can take to heart: any story can be good enough if you write it well.

Summary: Kill the Teacher's Pet
Review: This great suspenseful book was written by Joseph Locke. The title is Kill the Teacher's Pet. The book is about a kid named Joe. He's not the most popular person in school but he loves adventure. Other than that Joe leads a pretty ordinary life, until he hears on the news (for a couple weeks straight) that five teachers from five different schools in a five state area have been killed. The next day the principal comes into Joe's classroom and tells the class about his teacher moving away. The principal introduces Joe's new teacher to his class. His new teacher taught at every school that the five teachers that were killed were from. About a month later the principal announces over the loud speaker that a teacher was killed in Joe's school. Joe gets suspicious that his new teacher is somehow linked to the killings. When his teacher leaves his house that night to go out to dinner, Joe breaks into his teacher's house and finds more than he can capture on his camera. Then he hears his teacher come home. Joe is in the basement. Will he escape or will he get caught? You'll just have to read Kill the Teacher's Pet and find out!
