Maniac Magee

Reader reviewed by K.B L.T

There was a boy named Jeffery Magee. Who lived with his parents not so long. Because they had a trolley accident. Then he became an orphan. Then he went to go live with  his aunt and uncle for eight years. He did not like live with them. So he decided to run away.Not just run away but run. and that is where his live begins.

I like this book because it has friendship and another reason because it has adventure.

I advise book to people who like adventure and friendship.Seriously Read It!

This is a story about all the difficulties in an adolescent life. The richness of its truth and innocense makes Maniac Magee a fun and entertaining book that is a perfect read for a raining day. There is no other childrens' book that can captivate its readers' hearts better than this silly tale.

Maniac Magee was a really good book!! At the begining his parents died and he moved to his Aunt Dots & Uncle Dans house. I bet that it was tough living with his Aunt and Uncle.After I read on I realized how much the author exxagerated, like when he said that "Jeffery had ran for a year. The summary for this story is that Jeffery Magee wanted a family!!

It is a good book that teaches people blacks and whites are like the same people on the inside, and the color of somebody shouldn't matter its how they act and if there nice to you and to other people.

I just read one very exciting story about a boy. I loved the way the author got your attention with the amount of exaggeration there was. I like the way the author put this story when blacks and whites didn't like each other. I really do hope the author will make a sequal of the book. It was a wonderful story.

I read a book called Maniac Magee. It is a book that goes back in time and a boy called Maniac Magee. Magee showed the people in the East and West End that everyone is the same no matter how they look. It is very suspenseful and some exaggeration. One thing that really surprised me was when Maniac asked Amanda if he could borrow a book because he did not even know who she was. He acted as if he had known her since she was born. The author wrote that Maniac was a very fast runner and ran with a football in one hand and a book in the other. That is an exaggeration because it would be very hard to run like that without even being caught by someone. It is a very good book and children of all ages would love to read it.
