Customer Reviews

Little Eight John learned a good lesson.

I picked Little Eight John out at the library because my teacher read it to me at school. My mother read it to me one time. I liked the story because the boy was bad. When his mother told him not to kick the pond frog, he still kicked it. His mother said, "If you sit on a chair backwards they'd get bad luck." He still sat on the chair backwards, and they got bad luck. He had a dream about a monster that came out of the teapot. The part I liked the best was when he told his mother that he would repect and listen to her. Zakiya Gittens Age 6
