Overview / 简介: |
Unfortunately, it also led to the perfect punishment. When Jack Rankin gets busted for defacing a school desk with a huge wad of disgusting, watermelon bubble gum, the principal sentences him to three weeks of after-school gum cleanup for the chief custodian. The problem is, Jack's anger at the chief custodian was the reason for his gum project in the first place. The chief custodian happens to be Jack's dad.
But doing time in the school basement after hours reveals some pretty surprising things: about the school, about Jack's father, and about Jack himself.

From Organization / 国外机构评价: |
In a starred review, PW said that Clements "effectively draws a parallel" between Jack getting to know his janitor father, John, and John's relationship with his own father. "The author's uncanny ability to capture the fragile transformation from child to adolescent and its impact on family relationships informs every aspect of the novel." Ages 8-12. |
Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
Andrew Clements is quickly proving to be one of the finest writers for pre-teens in the country. "The Janitor's Boy" is a funny yet sensitive story about a son and his perceptions of his Father. I read it with my son and we both enjoyed it very much. It also led to several discussions between us. Any book that can foster discussions between parents and children is special. "The Janitor's Boy" is another special book from a gifted writer. |
