this book sounds kind of the book that deals witha a big kid and a kid whio cant use his arms It's a book about a kid who can't use his arms, legs, or communicate with anyone, even though he can hear everything that people are saying around him. He can't let them know he understands. Can you imagine how frustrating that would be? He thinks his father is planning to kill him. What do you think about a book on that topic? What is the last book you read just on your own?

i would like to read this it sounds interesting If you would like us to save the book for you when it is returned, stop in the library and request that it be reserved for you. Have you read any of Chris Crutcher's books? They are just as interesting and he is one of Terry Trueman's good friends.

history books for me Do you like to read about any time period in history or a specific time period like the Civil War? If you stop in I can recommend some books. We have tons of history books.

owned this book sounds sweet Are you saying that you own it but haven't read it? Why don't you read it this summer? I'm sure Mrs. Treers would like all her students to continue to read through the summer. Did you know she will be teaching 10th grade so she'll be your teacher again next year?

Never read but seems really interesting. It is very good. We borrowed several copies from other schools. If you'd like to read it we can save a copy for you when they get returned. What have you read recently just for yourself?

This book really looks interesting. Let me know if you'd like us to save you a copy when they get returned. What is the last book you read just on your own? What do you like to read about?

i loved your book Stuck in neutral You might enjoy the rest of Terry Trueman's books. You might also enjoy Chris Crutcher's books too. He and Terry Trueman are very good friends. At one conference I went to they did a workshop called Inside the Author's Studio where Chris Crutcher asked Terry Trueman questions, just like the TV show Inside the Actor's Studio. It was a lot of fun. They both had a good time.

what does terry truman write about? His newest book is called Hurricane and it's about the hurricane that devastated Honduras in 1998. What would you do if only a couple of people including you survived a hurricane in Norwood? Do you want to read one of his books? He has quite a few.

The Sophomore class listened to Terry Trueman speak today in the NNHS library. He was a fantastic speaker! I have never read his books either, yet he has made them all sound interesing. What is even more interesting, is that all of his books are based on his life experiences. He has chosen to publish his experiences in a fictional format to teach young adults/teens to think about the choices they make in theirs lives. He was a fantastic speaker. I suggest you talk to your sophomore peers to find out more about Terry Trueman as a speaker and an author. Mrs. Stiles is right. Talk to the sophomores and find out what they thought about him. Most of the AP class read Stuck in Neutral. Ask them what they thought of this book.
