Book Recommended by Anup C.
Mountain Park Branch
When I heard the song ‘Bad Day’ by Daniel Powter, it reminded me of Jerry Spinelli, when life gave him a few knots in his yo-yo string every so often. The gloomy times began when I saw the sadness in Spinelli’s eyes after his dog died. He shows the ups, downs, hopes, and sadness as a kid, acting as a model for teenagers. He didn’t hold anything back, revealing how important bikes, baseball, empty lots, early television, your own street, and friends are. The timeless book takes off as Spinelli takes snippets of the 10 years he lived on George Street, using descriptions with all five senses. With all the warmth, humor, and drama in his universe, Spinelli fondly recalls neighbors, pastimes, and events still prevalent today. Read and find out the stepping stones to success of his unique experience of growing up during the ‘40s and ‘50s.
