How
Angel Peterson Got His Name is a hilarious book that will make you laugh
out loud! In fact one middle school teacher, who was reading the
book aloud to her students, was accused by an administrator of having a
party in her room. Gary Paulsen, author of the many survival stories,
has written another book that will be popular with all middle school students.
This is a collection of five stories include bungee jumping using a tire
tube, riding a bicycle through a flaming hoop, and the title story involving
breaking a speed record on skis while being towed behind a speeding car.
A quick, delightful read for students who “want a funny book”. (Patty
Tucker, South Carolina Book
Awards, 2006) |
