Books by Blei: The Wednesday Wars

The Wednesday Wars
by Gary D. Schmidt

Recommended by: Thao H.
The Wednesdays Wars takes place in 1967. In is about a boy named Hollings Hoodhood who goes to Camillo Junior High. Holling thinks Mrs. Braker hates his guts because he doesn't have a religious class on Wednesday like the whole class does. So he has to stay alone with Mrs. Braker. The reason why this books is called The Wednesday Wars, is because at first Holling and his teacher didn't agree with each other. But every Wednesday, they get closer because Holling learns more about Mrs. Braker and realizes they don't really have differences. Through out the book, Holling faces different experiences that help him figure out who he is and what he really enjoys with the help of his teacher. 

This book was: Amazing! Different than what I thought.

I would recommend this book to: Anyone who enjoys historical fiction.

I rate this book:
