Harris and Me by Gary Paulsen
My review
(I'm on page 150 of 168. 3-2-09 -- Now I've finished it, and like it even better.)
I'm on page 150 of Harris and Me. Almost done, I've loved going back in memory to growing up on a farm, though without a Harris to get in trouble and risk life and limb with!
This gook is about an eleven year old boy who goes to live with relatives on a farm, including an outrageous nine year old boy named Harris. If you are offended by "body-parts" and "bathroom" humor, and by "classic" profanity, you may not want to read this. Other wise it may have you hooting with laughter.
I picked this up because another teacher in the district told me that her junior high reading class is very much enjoying it.
