    parents i would not give your child the book at the age 11 its to many words and it does not have a protagonist or an antagonist.

    Good book

    Recomended by a librarian, a good book to read, yet takes a little brain power to comprehend. If you focus enough, the book becomes a must read for tweens+.

    A wonderful book

    I do like the book A view from Saturday.I liked it because of the characters and events in the story.What I didn't like is when Hamilton Knapp put the drugs in Gingers dog treats.Also,when he wrote crippled on the classroom chalkboard.Hamilton is smart but is ignorate and is a troublemaker.I'd reccomend this book with my friends that like books with a little bit of reality in the middle.This is interesting and a little funny.That is what I like the book A view from Saturday.

    VERY CREATIVE

    What I recamend for this story is I think it is really exiting. Also, that It might have strong lauguges but it is still a very good book. This book has all their perosnalities and their traits. Finally, I think this should be for people 9 and mabye over.

    Horrible

    This book was horrible. I hated it, it was incredibly boring. The author went on blabbering about each character's life. It was incredibly boring and not recommended.

    This book is so wonderful! My 6th grade language class read this book. It complexity and flashbacks makes this book interesting. It is a great book about treating eachother nicely and teaches that it is okay to be different.
