Title: The Art of Keeping Cool
Review: The Art of Keeping CoolThe Art of Keeping Cool by Janet Taylor Lisle is about a boy named Robert. Robert lives in the time period of World War II. With Robert's dad in the Air Force, his mom can't support their farm in Ohio. They are forced to move to Sachem's Head, Rhode Island to live with his father's family. Here is where Robert meets his shy cousin Elliot.Robert quickly finds out that Grandpa Saunders is a really mean old man with a difficult, stubborn, personality. The book gets interesting when Elliot befriends a German artist who gives him art lessons. Robert is very suspicious and doesn't like Elliot going to see the artist behind his back.The book has a shocking ending and is a great, well written book. It also keeps readers on the edge of their seat.Kieron P. age 11
