Most of my friends read this and didn't like it (for various reasons) but I enjoyed it.

Caldecott Medal, 1959

A tale of a rooster who listens a little too much to the praise given to him and gets in trouble because of it.

I wanted to really like it. HOWEVER-
incorrect Maine geography + lack of whoopie pie knowledge= unhappy Sam.

I'm tired of Jacky and Jaimy (oh, how I hate writing that name that way!) I wish she was not interested in love with him, but instead her flirty self with no thought of commitment to a single person. In general though, her story is wearing thin, and I would hope that it is wrapping up soon.

I really enjoyed this book about "the ability" that you have when you are 12. I can really see kids enjoying this book and hoping that they too will have the ability when they are twelve.

I just finished this one on audio. I really liked it, although I questioned one of the twists at first. I think kids will enjoy it too.
