Gary Paulsen. Yes. He just continues to amaze me. How different his books are from one another. One would think, from reading other authors, and even reading REALLY good authors, that if someone had written as many books as Gary Paulsen, there would be so much repetition and formula to them. But with GP, no way. Think about
The Tent and
Hatchet and
Sentries and the
Liar, Liar series. Yes, they all have the Paulsen feel, but they are different. And awesome. Oh and what about
Paintings from the Cave!
Six Kids and a Stuffed Cat is another fresh, relevant book by Paulsen and different from his others, except for what you would from Paulsen, meaning awesome.
What was neat about this, too is that the book includes a script if you want to perform it, which I think would be great fun.
