Book Reviews of Blubber
Book Review: timeless story
Summary: 3 Stars
it is true this book was written in the mid 1970s but it could take place today - 30 years has not changed the under 12 social dynamics or the message put for in the narrative. We are supposed to identify with/ like Jill though she can be harsh and Kenny is meant to be a stabilizing force. He is a likeable character who shows a different side of Linda at the Bar Mitzva.
JIll does get a taste of her own medicine when she stands up to Wendy. there character types are recognizeable to most of us at some point in our lives. I liked the book as a teen ager and still like it now as an adult.
