Summer of the Monkeys by Wilson RawlsMy review
rating: 4 of 5 stars
One of my teacher's in elementary school read this to our class with the predictable result that 80% of the kids hated it and the kids who loved reading already promptly read it on their own. I fell into the second category. I had already seen the movie version of Where the Red Fern Grows which made me bawl like a child. I was in around 4th grade so this was totally appropriate.
Summer of the Monkeys had not tears except tears of laughter. I don't want to spoil too much but there is one spoiler you must know before your read this book.
Drunk Monkeys
It take quite a bit to top that. For a fun read with a feel good ending give this a look.
