The Wednesday Wars: A Newbery Honor Award Winner by Gary D. SchmidtMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Another good book from Gary Schmidt. You can’t help but love the main character and his teacher. I have to wonder if Mr. Schmidt had an abusive father? Both of the books I’ve read of his have had terrible fathers. This father was not physically abusive, but was really a terrible father. He was ambitious in his business and nothing else mattered. He had his ladder leaning against the wrong wall. His mother was milk-toast. But his teacher was wonderful. I loved the weaving of Shakespeare throughout the story.
