The Wednesday Wars

A couple of kids from Ms Hoyt's class have read this one as part of literature circle, and is well worth a read!  It is a coming of age portrait of a 7th grade boy that is just as applicable to Dads as well.

April's read comes from Bez: Jeremy Fink and the Meaning of Life.  It is our first unanimous choice!  Alternate titles were The Hobbit, and The Thief Lord.
And if we don't like it, we can blame Ben's sister...
