Narrative In Pursuance Of Books Smiles to Go

I always think it's funny when books say "My first....", "My first ABC book", "My first book of rhymes", "my first book of Holiday's",etc. I mean how many "first's" are there before "first" isn't a big deal.
and yet, I think this book could marketed as "My first book of existential crisis" The main character realized protons die and questions the nature of everything while being with others for not recognizing the gravity of things."

I don't necessarily like the idea of introducing the idea of self doubt to kids and I probably would have given this book 3 stars but I had to move it to 5 because my son recommended, actually *insisted*, I read it.

The thing is, that being a divorced mom of a 10 year old boy can bring about a myriad of insecurities I'd not even considered. It's compounded by the fact that his dad shows up occasionally and sweeps him off to surf in SanDiego for weeks at a time or takes him backpacking around Mt. Hood, while I - - - ? um, read to him. That's some pretty stiff competition for me to compete with.
So the fact that he cares what I think about his book, that he wants to share the story with me and asked constantly "what page are you on?", and we shared bits we liked here and there means it's a 5 "sentimentally-starred" book for me.

Commentary Epithetical Books Smiles to Go

Cute audiobook. Not something I'd want to sit and read, but it was nice to listen to while working

It wasn't until about 1/3 of the way into this book that I began to think any teenager would ever read it. Having grown up believing protons to be an immortal part of the universe, 9th-grade chess whiz and future astronomer Will Tuppence's world is rocked when scientists witness a flash that marked the expiration of a proton. Will is so upset over this that he can barely function for a few days, and is genuinely shocked and surprised that no one else seems to care. Once he finally accepted the

I absolutely love Jerry Spinelli (I feel like now that I've read, and loved, three of his books, I can "officially" say that I love him as an author instead of only loving his books). In Smiles to Go Will is so philosophical, he's so much more than the artificial, shallow guy found in so many YA books. He has a take on life that's way beyond his years, he asks questions and ponders things that wouldn't even occur to most people, and I absolutely loved listening to his thoughts. Not being a guy,

It all starts with the death of one proton.Who knew? I enjoyed it, but it wasn't what I was hoping for, which was more of what I saw with his 'Stargirl' books. It's a sweet story with a tidy ending. A good representation of what the young adult book should be. And I learned the meaning of 'solipsism'. Now to incorporate that in every day life. hmmm... I'm sure I'll find a way. I did enjoy this part (dealing with the above death of proton) Two hundred days since 10:15am that September Saturday

Smiles To Go I just enjoyed reading Smiles To Go by Jerry Spinelli. This book discusses the lives of three 9th graders that are best friends. The main character is Will, an average 9th grader who likes to play Monopoly with his best friends Mi-Su and BT. He has a very annoying sister named Tabby who always wants to play monopoly with them on Saturday nights or go to their parties. One night they go to a special party where they can see different stars and galaxies, and Will catches Mi-Su and BT

A feel-good book centered around the importance of family. Not my favorite, but it was nice to read.
