Rating:  Summary: Better than I expected Review: Seventeen Against the Dealer was much better than I expected. I read this book to do a report on, and it is very easy to understand, very easy reading. I was able to relate to each of the characters, especially Dicey and Maybeth. This book had something for almost everyone. A little suspence, a little adventure, and a little romance. If you are like me, I can picture a grandmother refusing to be taken to a doctor, eventhough she is near death. If you have read any of Voigt's books, read this one. It does get better after the 2nd chapter!
Rating:  Summary: Excellent from start to finish. Review: The four Tillerman children are almost all grown up. They almost desert their grandmother, leaving her to get sick. Priorities change, but they are eventually for the better. These changes bring the family close together once again. This book is very well written. It shows the power Cynthia Voight has to create life like situations and solve them with life like resolutions. This book is qiute life like, as if Cynthia Voight herself were in a situation similar to this. They were always living on the edge. The whole family was always prepared for any advantage or disadvantage coming their way at any point in time. This book is very good and challenges the mind at all times. The situations that the Tillermans are in are always on the edge of seperating the whole book from reality and fiction.
