Schooled

Post by Tuly »

Schooled by Gordon Korman. More fiction books about home schoolers are becoming popular. The main characters are usually weirdos that are good people but no social skills. The main character in this book is 14 year-old Capricorn Anderson, he reminds me of Napoleon Dynamite. Cap for short, is put back in Junior High School. He gets bullied but in the end everything works out for Cap. This character reminded me that lately the movie Napoleon Dynamite makes me really uncomfortable, I guess because I'm laughing at a youth who is also bullied and has a depressing family life. Maybe I'm just loosing my sense of humor.This is a good read for any one over 11-years old.

home schooling isn't as much an unknown as it used to be.
so let it be written... so let it be done.
