characters, all of them, were very lovable though so this could make a decent read aloud in a classroom.I really wanted to like this book, but unfortunately, I found it to be quite slow I will not

timeless Discussed in the Newbery Club Steve, I agree The episodes with Rachel were pretty much outside the main plot, I felt, and that enhanced my impression of how special they were I particularly liked her inside out logic, and how she fretted about turning into a Wally Bullwinkle Re the art I first encountered Estes illustrations as a child reading The Middle Not my very favorite Cranbury

Terhune, et al But in this, the dog is absent for probably half the book orAnd even when he s around, it s not all about him I guess a different title would have beenaccurate What I loved about this book was how much of it is reflective lots of flashbacks and momentary recollections that round out the characters and give the reader lots of context and history about the setting and I avoided this

to be a hero or something, maybe rescue a few people from danger, perform astounding stunts, and then comes the day when the entire town has to band together to save their beloved friend.Well, that

disappeared a chapter later and wasn t seen for the rest of the book So, no rescue missions.There were plenty of parts in this book that they could have left out They didn t need to go caving, or to the zoo, or explain in great detail how their parents met In the chapter about the Perpendicular Swimmer , I thought at least Ginger was going to save someone from drowning, but all they did was swim

groans, sighs, and fist banging Seriously, I m not exaggerating when I say this is the worst book I ve read in my life The writing is absolutely horrible There were so many unnecessary flashbacks that had nothing to do with the story in the least that I literally cringed and wanted to scream whenever it launched into yet another page and a half rant about stuff that we could care so much less about The style I have finished it The book that was responsible for a week and a half of cringes, groans, sighs, and fist banging Seriously, I m not exaggerating when I say this is the worst book I ve read in my life The writing is abso...Cute but a little wordy and also a bit dated.
