I read this when I was younger and didnt understand any value other than that it was a good story, then read it for school and realized I how much I didn't understand

I read this book at least three times a year. Yes, it's that good.

This is a really good book that tells you, being the most popular girl at school isn’t what it’s all about. Also by E.L. Konigsburg: My fathers daughter About the B’nai Bagels and From the Mixed-Up Files of Ms. Basil E. Frankweiler

This is a really funny book. E.L. Konigsburg is an awesome author who also wrote some other award-winning books too. Its about four people who end up becoming friends. Somehow they all relate to each other and its funny how it happens.

This is a book for younger readers, but one of my favorite books. It's on my bedside table, because it's a touching story about being the underdogs.

Its a pretty good book, I mean its not the best ..In the beginning it is sorta boring but then it gets to the good part [Newbery Medal Winner]

I have heard from others that this book was confusing and slow moving. Sure it was sometimes slow moving and confusing in the beginning, but if you just stick with it you'll find that this Newberry Winner is certainly worth the time reading it.
