Eggs By: Jerry Spinelli

       This book is an afternoon worthy book. What I mean is, It's a good book to  relax and read on a Sunday afternoon.
       It's about a boy named David who is troubled. He shows great distaste for his grandmother with whom he lives. It is clearly shown that David's grandmother loves him and shows a great deal of compassion for him. Her many attempts at finding a friend for David are put to rest when David finds a quirky girl named Primrose. She's fun, she's sassy, she's stubborn, she's different, she's abnormal, she's trouble. Their talks and late night sneak-outs lead Primrose and David into a bizarre friendship.
        I'd recommend this book to any older child. It is a book that you'll find you can easily make connections with. The sprinkles of humorous remarks and surprising comments will have you laughing and gasping at the unexpected twists and turns.
