I Kill the Mockingbird
I Kill the Mockingbird | Paul Acampora
15 posts | 23 read | 35 to read
When Lucy, Elena, and Michael receive their summer reading list, they are excited to see To Kill A Mockingbird included. But not everyone in their class shares the same enthusiasm. So they hatch a plot to get the entire town talking about the well-known Harper Lee classic. They plan controversial ways to get people to read the book, including re-shelving copies of the book in bookstores so that people think they are missing and starting a website committed to "destroying the mockingbird." Their efforts are successful when all of the hullabaloo starts to direct more people to the book. But soon, their exploits start to spin out of control and they unwittingly start a mini revolution in the name of books.

Review
This is a story of a summer in which three young friends decide to draw attention to reading (and a favorite novel) by means of a prank. I don't like pranks. This one is fairly harmless, as pranks go. Ultimately, it is a book that I think many junior high students who enjoy reading would enjoy. I won't say more, so that I don't spoil the fun.

#TBRtemptation post 5! Lucy, Elena, and Michael are thrilled to find TKAM on their summer reading list! Not everyone shares their enthusiasm though. So they hatch a plan to get everyone in town talking about the book. They make people think copies are missing, they start a website. And they succeed--so well that they start a mini-revolution in the name of books. #blameLitsy #blameMrBook 😎

I know it's not Thursday, but this showed up in my Facebook memories, so here's a #ThrowbackTuesday post (it's a thing; I promise): I Kill the Mockingbird is a great YA read about a group of teens who want their classmates to get excited about reading TKAM, so they hide ALL the copies of the books and leave signs in their place claiming to have "killed the mockingbird." This was a fun, quick read!

A YA novel about 3 young teens trying to honor their late, great English teacher Fat Bob. It's a quick, funny read with quirky characters and some depth about the serious illness of a parent. Best: it encourages young readers to think critically about books and what makes them "great." Or not.

This book was a quick read and just overall awesome. With a hint of Frindle, three kids decide to try to get everyone they know to read To Kill A Mockingbird. Really amazing, insightful Middle Grade readers book but with lots of humour for bookish adults. 5/5

Be prepared to get spammed by quotes from this Middle Readers book. It's super poignant and I love it already.
