Crazy Weekend

Have you ever wanted to read a book that would keep you on the edge of your seat the whole time? Well this the book for you.Crazy Weekend starts off like any other story. Two boys got off a train there names where Hector and Mondo. They are going o spend a weekend with Hectors Uncle. Hector's uncle finds them and takes them to se the sites of East L.A. they took pictures to sell to a newspaper company. After they were done, they went to their uncle's apartment. There they made a superbowl salad before they went to bed. When they got up and went to an old airport, uncle had to take pictures of farms for people. Whey they got into the plane and got going, uncle started taking pictures. When they got on the ground, and started going to uncle's best customer, they heard on the radio that an armored car had just been stolen and nobody had found it. I really liked the book because it teaches you that if you can conquer their fears, anything can be done. If I was to rate this book to Old Yeller, I would give it an "8". That's how much I liked this book. I recommend the age range should be 10 and up. It has pretty difficult vocabulary.

The Stupid Book

I read Crazy Weekend for a book report. Some parts of the book are really exciting, but other parts are dull and had no point to it. I really liked the book because it had alot of action in it, but not like blood and guts action more like suspenseful action. Bearstone is another book like this one because they both go on a suspeseful journey. Hector gets really scared from going into a really old airplane. I think this was a very good multicultural book for a book report.
