This homeschool book review was written by 10 year old homeschool student, Andrew Sanders.

“The Saturdays by Elizabeth Enright is one of my favorite children’s books. The main characters are four children, who go on silly adventures with their dog. My favorite character is Oliver, a six-year-old boy who goes to the circus all by himself.

While he is at the circus, he buys some cotton candy and a snotty little girl screams to have it. Another funny adventure is when Mona, one of the girls, gets a manicure without her parents knowing! When she comes home, the whole family is so startled that she is sent to her room! When I finished the book, I learned a valuable lesson for any kid: Ask for permission before you do something. I definitely recommend this book for other people who like to laugh.”

Have you visited my online homeschool bookstore just for preteens?  You’ll find my favorite books on Christian faith, fine arts, history, math concepts, novels, and many more categories for 9-12 year olds.  And if you like The Saturdays, Andrew also recommends The Four Story Mistake also by Ms. Enright.  Thank you, Andrew!
