I booktalked Wringer on the first day of children's lit class and one of the guys already had it by the next session ;-)

I think I connected with the book because I was a middle/girl child with male siblings. In my brain I could see it in the neighborhood where I grew up.

PS- I think I posted this to the wrong list! The current Wringer discussion seems to be here not on child_lit. Sorry for the duplication :-(
