Goodbye, Walter Malinski

This book is called Goodbye Walter Malinski. By: Helen Recorvtits. This story takes place in a small town in America. The time of this story takes place in 1934. The season of this town is winter. Some of the characters in this story are, Walter, Wanda, and Pa. Pa can get cruel a lot. Walter is the finest brother in America. Wanda also is a nice sister. Walter is 16 years old. He also likes to do stuff dangerous. Wanda loves to dance a lot with her mom. The problem in this story is that Pa loses his job and doesn't have a lot of money. Pa also gets angry with Walter a lot. My favorite part of this story is at the end because it shocks me. The story starts when pa loses his job. I actually like this book. I loved the author because she gave a lot of background and detail. I also liked the illustrator because it had a lot of exiting pictures. I would recommend this book to a friend because it was thrilling and the author wrote a lot of exiting things in it.

The book Goodbye Walter Malinski is a wonderful example of how a poor, Polish famiy survived in America during the Great Depression. It also displays how a family coped with the loss of a loved one. This is a book that is short and sweet. My opinion of this book is very high, but to discover the exiting events you must read it your self.
