Confessions and Secrets of Howard J. Fingerhut
Howie is a funny kid with a great sense of humor and lots of ambition. He thinks like a kid, so he's very believable. His class mates are real,too. It's just nice to find a children's book that is not fantasy bound or problem-centered, but one that deals with a real kid's world- probably a suburban kid. Children will identify with Howie or recognize him or one of his classmates. It will bring a smile to every reader's face- both young and old. This book proves sometimes reality can be a pleasant experience.
