My 5th grade teacher read this to us in class ... and we all loved it! It was the first book to be completley sold out at the Book Fair that year. The movie is good as well ... but nothing beats the book!

Great book, good movie. If you liked the movie, you'll love the book! This book is a classic unlike any other novel of its kind, you'll want to read it again and again!

This is a Newbury Medal award book and is very interesting. Sometimes recommended reading for school classes.

This is a great story for kids (ages 9-15ish), but even the adults may enjoy it!
It especially appeals to people who don't like to read long stories. The chapters are short, the plot moves swiftly, yet it is still a sophisticated story with plot twists, and a surprising ending.
