"It Sucks!" I hear this refrain an aweful lot these days as the kids begin to read the books that they have supposedly been reading all summer long in preparation for the new school year. I find that that more often than not, the kids are profoundly mistaken in their assessment of the texts. The following is a list of books about which I have heard the kids say, "It sucks."
1) Silas Marner
2) 1984
3) The Pearl
4) Johnny Tremain
5) 1776
6) Jane Eyre
7) Night
Night is such a great read but terribly sad
