Book Reviews of John Patrick Norman McHennessy: The Boy Who Was Always Late
Book Review: A Long Time Favorite
Summary: 5 Stars
This book tickles me! I am a teacher and have read it so many times to students that I have to get another copy. Kids really love this story. It is a little bit of a surprise to them when the teacher tells John that if he keeps telling lies he might hit him with his stick, but he doesn't ever get hit so it just serves to grab the kids' attention. The book isn't explicit because you can see the things that could never happen, "happening" but maybe it is the boy's imagination. Since you never know for sure it is a great book to talk about how different people can interpret books in different ways depending on their experiences or mindset. You could even have kids present the evidence that made them think the things really did or really didn't happen. Awesome book!
