I was probably one of the few in my class to love that book!. I read it two years ago for school for my Sophomore English class (I'm a senior now) and I just loved it!. I loved John Knowels's style of writing; it was whimsical and I love authors who can pull that off!. The characters are marvelously done and if you push all the subtext aside, you've got such an amazing story!. I'm always keeping a copy of that book!. It was that good and definitely a favorite of mine!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

i read it for a summer assignment for english honors 1!.!.!. i thought it was ok!. the characters bugged me a little, but they were definatly relatable and sempt like real people!. the whole thing with him returning to the tree to remeber the story seems a little pointless!. its the same story with or without that part!. i didnt really see a point to it other than it making him reminiss (sp)Www@QuestionHome@Com
