Project Sweet Life
This book is about Dave (15), whose father told him to get a summer job. He doesn't want to do that, so Dave and his friends Victor and Curtis come up with every way possible to get out of it. In the end, they end up getting summer jobs.
Teens will see themselves (and laugh) in this book about growing up.
None.
I picked this book because the cover made it look interesting. I thought the book would get better after the first chapter, but it didn't. I didn't like the book because of the main idea, but I learned that you shouldn't try to take the easy way through life.
Three boys have big plans for the summer. Follow along with this YA novel about big ideas, choices, and consequences.
There are themes of growing up, personal responsibility, and choices/consequences, as well as family relationships. This would make a nice selection for a book club, particularly a father-son reading group.
