Jonah, the Whale (APL Sig)

I am a third grader and thought that the book was very good and funny. It is a Sunshine State Book in Florida and I took a Reading Counts test from it. It was hard to put the book down. I recommend this book to anyone that likes 'happy ending' books.

I'm glad I purchased this book. Jonah is an appealing character, someone you sympathize with and root for--his propensity to "make lemonade out of lemons" is refreshing. I wish more kids today would see the potential within themselves like Jonah did. The only thing I did not like about the book was the plot twist to the mother-boyfriend relationship at the end of the book--not very realistic, but then maybe there's too much realism in children's books these days. Otherwise, it's a wonderful book.
