The book opened up a whole new world for me. Even though it was an older book I still thought it was related to our lives now a days. Our school has also started a blog on the book.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9189361222043328239.post-60842688339832653662012-04-26T12:17:07.926-06:002012-04-26T12:17:07.926-06:00Hi, I am in grade 7 and our whole class is doing a...Hi, I am in grade 7 and our whole class is doing a blog for this book. When I first found out that we were reading such an old book I was a little bit worried that it wouldn't be a good book but after we started reading I was hooked i didn't want to stop.

So I picked the book up and started reading too -- you know, role modelling. Trouble was, I couldn't put it down. I ended up reading it through the next four periods. I'm pretty sure that those classes were all assigned the PigMan as well, but um, either way, that's what we did. I stayed after school to finish. (I'm still a slow reader.) Bought a copy the next day for my library, and just this week, put it on my daughter's shelf; now that she's seen Hunger Games 11 times, might be open to a new book....Robert Runtéhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14629421213549342874noreply@blogger.com
