Small Fry by Stephenie Wilson Peterson – Review by Carrie Reed

Small Fry by Stephenie Wilson Peterson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Excellent book, especially for kids. There is a lot to learn from this book, and will definitely be passing it on to my nephews. Silas is such a good boy, the fact that he has moments where he could retaliate against Chad, but doesn’t shows how mature he is. I hated seeing him get picked on for being small, kids are one thing but for a teacher to not help in any way, blew my mind. I hope any kid that reads this book can identify at their school if a teacher isn’t supporting them so they can get the help or support they need. On top of the bullying and running for class president, Silas has to worry over his grandpa who has Alzheimer’s. The books does a great job of showcasing what this disease is all about and how it is affecting Silas. Again, wonderful book and highly recommended to middle school kids.
