Elisa Picchi elisapicchi — ** spoiler alert ** I was disappointed by this book. I was expecting so much more of the beauty of China. Instead what I read was a negative picture of a country bogged down with bureaucrats and history mostly from the Maoist period. I wanted more of the myths, legends and romanticism that must surely be found alongside the Yangtze. Most disappointing of all was that having travelled for weeks, and against the odds, making it far into Tibet (which was virtually closed to foreigners in 1995), Simon & Lily didn't actually make it to either of the two recognised sources of the river, instead they stopped short and journeyed back to Shanghai. I felt like a bride jilted at the altar!

Ambra Zenato ambrart — "Because of Mr. Terupt" is not a book I would have chosen on my own; we are reading it for my "adults reading young adult books" reading group which includes writers, media specialists, book store owners, and the like. The novel is appropriate for late elementary and middle school readers. Because I generally read high school and cross-over fiction, some things weren't immediately obvious to me - like the fact that the unwed mother could be an issue for some. I didn't even think twice about it. So, when I finished the book, I needed to calibrate my thinking to the intended audience. "Because of Mr. Terupt" is told from he perspective of seven fifth graders who come together in the classroom of new teacher, Mr. Terupt. The seven characters are "types" - the class clown, the nerd, the fat girl, the pretty mean girl, the shy girl, etc. Because they are types, because author Rob Buyea uses some rather cheesy methods for distinguishing the characters (such as the overuse of "like" by the pretty mean girl), and because each chapter begins with the character's name in a different font, the characters are generally distinct. Here is where I had to ask myself if this was because of the writing or because of the intended audience. And despite their somewhat stereotypical nature, the characters are generally well-developed, complex (for a middle school read), and real. However, in the second half, I found myself thinking, "A kid would never say it like that" or "A kid would probably not have such clear, mature, wise thoughts and understanding." In the end, the tragedy that occurs ends up leading to the characters mending their issues and becoming a solid unit. The chapters are appropriately short, and the action moves swiftly for the most part. The story begins strongly (I thought this was going to be a story about bullying, but that is not what it ends up being). Once the tragedy occurs, the story stalls. I especially did not like the heavy-handed religious stuff and the use of platitudes and preachiness in the second half of the book. In addition to spelling out the prayers of one of the characters, he actually had the characters hold hands and pray, as suggested by both the adult and the kid characters in the book. I don't think this would actually happen. I thought the book crossed the line in this regard. What I loved about this book, in a day when taking pot shots at teachers for all that ails the world, it was great to see a book about the impact that a great teacher can have. However, the fact that the teacher did things in an unconventional manner was the subject of a discussion between Jessica and her mother. The mother actually blames the teacher for what happens!!! I almost put the book down at that point. Parents like that are one of the reasons that a lot of great teachers drop out of teaching and the reason that fewer and fewer young people choose the profession. So I have mixed feelings about this book. I read it very quickly, so I must have been engaged. I shed a few tears, so it must have moved me. But I think I would only recommend it to a very small audience - those looking for Christian fiction, those not afraid of an unwed mother storyline, those not expecting too much in terms of writing, and those who prefer didactic young adult literature. How's that for a mixed bag of opinions?
