Title: Excellent writing for a 3rd-Grader
Product review: I don't like to judge books without reading them, and sadly I did finish this sophomoric (is there such a thing as freshmanic?) work of "literature." Dave Barry said it better than anyone else by "writing" his own version in a column that was not only wittier, but more engrossing -- all in about 1/2 page. When you have to stoop to cheap cliffhanger tricks at the end of every chapter to make certain the reader doesn't just stop reading and go play on the swingset, you might as well put down the pen and go work in the yard.This book simply confirms the dreaful state of affairs produced by the pitiful public education system we're saddled with here in the US.
