Sleeping Freshmen Never Lie - Book Review/ Summary

Sleeping Freshmen Never Lie, by David Lubar, is a story about a freshmen named Scott Hudson. He has one goal for his freshman year: to survive. To cope with the expected (friends dumping him) and unexpected (mom's pregnant!) changes of his first year of high school, Scott keeps a diary in the guise of writing advice to "Smelly," his unborn brother. Full Cast Audio evokes the humorous growing pains of Scott, his friends, and family. Ryan MacConnell does an especially good turn at portraying Scott as a smart, wry young man wondering how to convert these unpopular traits into assets. Light music separates narration from epistolary episodes, and a catchy jazz phrase indicates new chapters. This excellent production will keep all listeners awake, even sleeping freshmen. I would give this book 8/10 stars, it is a great and somewhat quick read for high schoolers and college kids.

Here is some book info:

Number of Pages: 160 pages
Publisher: Dutton Juvenile (July 21, 2005)
Language: English
Dimensions: 8.3 x 5.6 x 0.8 inches

I would recomend reading this book, it is somewhat short, but funny, with a right on plot that will make anyone keep reading.

    (0)
    Just like the other Visual Quickstart Guides, this book goes over the basics for Photoshop CS3, and
    teaches you how to use Photoshop and give you a basic understanding on how Photoshop works as well.
    Very easy to understand as they give these mini tutorials in each section that they cover, such as
    filters, brushes, layers, layer effects and gradients to name a few. This is a good book to learn
    the beginnings on how to use Photoshop, but once you understand the basic concepts from this book

  9. Essential Actionscript 3.0 Book Review
    (0)
    Even though this book covered the basics of ActionScript 3.0, I felt that this book is above a
    beginner’s level in programming for ActionScript. The reason I say that is that this book
    guide you through building a prebuilt set of scripts. Which is all fine and dandy, but for someone
    who has a hard time trying to learn programming languages to be able to code from scratch. I want
    to be able to learn of which I attempted to do so before my computer crashed on me and lost
    everything. In my opinion, unless you understand ActionScript and know how to use it then thi....

    included the 40 years of researching and talking to people to find out what happen on that tragic

    compared this tragedy with the Holocaust because she mentioned that the Holocaust was an ....
  11. Rich Dad, Poor Dad - What The Rich Teach Their Kids About Money That The Poor Do Not.
    Book review by yours truly! (2)
    It was 3 years ago. We were leaving Chapters (Bookstore in Canada, I don't know if it exists
    elsewhere) and I noticed on one of the tables a book someone had left there titled "Rich Dad, Poor
    Dad - What the Rich Tell Their Children About Money That the Poor Do Not". Not exactly being born in
    the richest of families, I was intrigued by what secrets might lie within this book. Secrets I
    would never learn unless I opened and read it's pages. I pointed the book out to my mom, she
    looked the price then put it back on the table. We left. I was kind of disapointed ....
  12. Angels And Demons - Dan Brown
    Book Review (27)
    Angels and Demons is a book by Dan Brown. It is the first book in which Robert Langdon takes a part
    and the series of events in this book takes place one year before The Da Vinci Code. Robert
    Langdon is a professor in religious symbology at Harvard. When he gets a phone call 5 o'clock in
    the night, which says that he needs to come at once because it is of absolute importance, he
    doesn't take it serious, but when he gets a fax with a picture of a naked man with the word
    "Illuminati" burned on his chest, he is forced to travel to a Swiss research center and anal....
