Venokur, Ross._The amazing Frecktacle_,1998 [0-385-32621-1] This is a fun story about a fifth grade boy, Nicholas who is teased because of his freckles. One day he meets a man who wants his freckles and makes a deal with him to remove them magically. If he lets Nicholas have the freckles he will make everyone sorry who teased him. Well, it turns out the freckles are magic (that's why the man wants them). The man uses the freckles and magic to turn everyone at school into mutants. Of course at the end of the story Nicholas figures out a way to get his freckles back and save the day. In the process he learns to appreciate his freckles. I should mention that this cute 135 page book deals with magic and casting spells -- it even mentions using black magic once. *** Frederick Muller fmuller@tellurian.net Halsted Middle School (973) 383-7440 ext.228 59 Halsted Street FAX (973) 383-7432 Newton, NJ 07860 ------- My book reviews are compiled at: http://www.halsted.org/br.htm =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-= All postings to LM_NET are protected under copyright law.
