Is the whole book as good as the tiny blip I mentioned? Please write me back Thanks!

Criss cross happens to be one of my favorite books. Its hard to understand i know but its about figuring out who you are, where you belong and letting the futur come and not going to it. If you ever decide to reread it look at the author's details. The small details are actually big. anyways i understand your point of veiw. Hi! Criss cross happens to be one of my favorite books.

Noel - Oh my, I'm making a lot of people cry today. I haven't read The Story of Mankind yet. No good, I'm guessing? Becky - This is my first year that I've been reading middle grade/juvenile fiction, so I've got a lot of "catching up" to do. Personally, I'd just skip this one. Theresa - I have My Side of the Mountain on my bookshelf just waiting to be read. I keep picking it every once in a while and saying, this month? But I haven't managed to get around to it yet. I was fortunate to meet Jean Craighead George a few years ago, it was a nice experience. Tarie – I’ll think of you the whole time I’m there.

Partly because the reader's voice was so grating that my only defense was to pass out, and partly because I had no idea what the point was. There was one passage I liked though, towards the beginning, about Hector soaking up the guitar player's music like a sponge. I started listening to this on tape and promptly fell asleep.
