The Wanderer
by Sharon Creech
the wanderer (12/11/2007)
I did not like this book at all. I think it’s a waste of time to read it. I don’t know why anybody would like this book. It’s a story about a 13-year-old girl who was trying to find her grandfather. She has to, with her uncles and cousins, sail to England to find him. It seems to me that the story was very boring and it just went on and on and it did not have a point. It seemed that the characters where not fully introduced. You don’t now, and will never learn, about the characters appearance or there personality. The chapters are told by ether Cody or Sophie. I would of let all the characters have a paragraphs. Overall I would rate this book a 1 out of 5.
