Learning to Swear in America by Katie Kennedy

4.0

I have a student who wants to be a cosmologist, and now that we are studying outer space, she has really blossomed. She was really excited about this book—at least, the part about the Russian scientist who is working to save the Earth from an asteroid hurtling toward it. She added to her review:”There’s also a love story. I skipped those parts,” which is probably the cutest thing any 8th grader has said to me in a long time. I didn’t skip them and really loved the characters in those parts. This was a good read, funny, sweet and a bit geeky.
