Al Capone Does My Homework

This is a fake story. The main character is Moose Flanagan. Thirteen year old Moose lives on the island. His Dad was put up to a better job at the prison. The wardens daughter lets him know that he needs to watch his father’s back because the prisoners play game on people there. They collect a certain number of points for doing things like spitting on a guard. They get bonus points for killing a warden.
 
I have read all of the other books, this is the last book out of all of them. I really love how this book is, it explains so much about the island. I also like how Moose take cares of his Older sister Nat, she has autism and he takes care of her like if she is his own. I know it sounds weird but he's is really used to it. In one of the books they used to make fun of her because she was different from other people and they just didn't get how she worked.  He would normally get mad at them but then he would also get into fights with Nat because she would get him really mad. For example she has a collection of buttons and she has them super neat and if someone would move one or even take one she would notice and she would name the color the graphic that was on it and how many holes that was on the button.  I really honestly love this book.

The privilege of youth

The Book "The privilege of youth is a sequel of 3 books,"The lost boy "The boy called It" And "my name is David. Its about a young boy named David and when he was little he was going through the worst time in his life. His mother wouldn't let him eat drink or even use the washroom. in the book it says "The only time I'm really happy is in my dreams,  I sleep on a coat in the garage, I huddle my self up trying to use my body warmth to keep me warm" (Page:3) from "The Lost Boy". In this book "The privilege of youths."he is a teenager, and he is a faster child now. After running away so much he finally is some what happy. At the school he goes to now there is a lot of drama and fights going on. other kids make fun of him because he is a 
faster child. He’s gotten beaten up at least 3 times but he finally TRIED standing up for him self 
but he was beaten up then to.



The book "The privilege Of Youth,  is a deep deep story about David, throughout the whole book, I seen that he was trying and trying to fit in, and he just couldn't. He always gets into fights, just because he is a Foster child when half of them dont even know what he had been through, This book gets me more angry than upset. I feel like he wrote his books to show you can still be happy no matter how hard things are at home or anywhere through out your life time. I honestly think David is a strong man, and he has changed people when they read his books.

The privilege of youth

The Book "The privilege of youth is a sequel of 3 books,"The lost boy "The boy called It" And "my name is David.

but he was beaten up then to.




My opinion about this book,
I honestly feel so  much better reading this last book, I honestly felt really bad for him. I mean what kind of child deserves a family who don’t even want him? That beat him and starve him just for the heck of it? He didn’t do anything to them but stick with them and put up with the pain he was feeling inside and he couldn't do anything about it. Finally he ran away, And he got to the police station and his mom came and she lied and said he was always in fights,so they wouldn't take him away from her. I felt like he was her little slave more than a child. I love this book, but it’s so deep, and It feels like I was there with him and I really hope no one feels pains he has had or even worse.
