A review by ld2
Thriller by Jon Scieszka

3.0

This was a collection of stories that was truly directed for elementary and middle school boys. The stories were entertaining but forgettable, however, the diamond in the ruff of the series was definitely "Pirates". "Pirates" is an emotional and stark glimpse of life for the poverty stricken Somalians and how their struggles impact the life of one boy trying to survive. The collection is worth reading for that story alone.
