It uses graphics like a comic to illustrate some of the stories thorughout the book. I can see the appeal for middle schoolers. However, the book was not outstanding in my opinion. Still glad I read it though!”

“Nightjohn is a gripping tale of a young African American slave who risks it all to learn to read. The tale depicts the cruelty of slavery in the South. The story follows two characters who both thirst for knowledge. One unaware of the consequence, the other willing to take the risk. The story is full of themes that will carry your students through a discussion on slavery and the treatment of African Americans. The book is a little graphic and has some heavy content, but still appropriate for middle school. ”

“This was a cute book about a girl and boy who are best friends. This book is different because it is told in short choppy stories. The characters narrate the book, but they talk like we think. This book explores the ups and downs of growing up and navigating friendship. It is a great read for...”

“This quick read was a great tale of a young boy becoming a man. Mafatu must overcome many hardships as he is thrust out into the wild to live by himself. This book reminded me a lot of Gary Paulsens books. The tale of a young boy surviving on his own will keep young readers reading to find out...”

“This quick read was a great tale of a young boy becoming a man. Mafatu must overcome many hardships as he is thrust out into the wild to live by himself. This book reminded me a lot of Gary Paulsens books. The tale of a young boy surviving on his own will keep young readers reading to find out what happens to Mafatu and his bog companion. This book had several overall themes that would be great for class discussions. ”

“I didn't think this book was anything to write home to mom about. It is a spin-off of a classic, The Great Gatsby. I found the book to be lacking. Its characters were pretty shallow, and the plot was very simple. I think the fact that Korman was trying to make a version of a classic means he gave up some creative ideas. If the plotted had been tinckered more, I think a good story could come from it; however, this book didn't leave me thinking much afterwards. ”
