You Must Read This Book

"Soup For President" by Robert Newton Peck, is a great novel! Soup(one of the main characters) is a courageous kid who wants everyone to know him. He is doing everything he can to win the school election. Rob is Soup's best friend. He is handing out flyers for Soup, so that way he isn't doing anything to get in trouble. Soup now wants to paint his name on a barn wall to promote his campaign, as but Rob is against the whole idea. This may be like you and your best friend. One of you is strong-willed and courageous(Soup) and the other friend is weak-willed and a very big coward. This seems true of most friends. In this book, most poeple dislike Janice Riker. She is mean to everyone and gives them no sympathy. Janice will tie kids to a tree, tackle them hard in football, always yells, and never gives up until she wins. This is one tough girl you would just want to stay away from!!! Lindy B. Student at C.E. Utt Middle School
