Jack On The Tracks: Four Seasons Of Fifth Grade (2001)

About book Jack On The Tracks: Four Seasons Of Fifth Grade (2001)

This is one of my sons' summer reading books; my sons are 10 and will enter fifth grade in the fall. Although I like the book a lot, I wish my boys (who aren't the most mature kids around) were reading it in a year or two. I say that because the book has surprisingly mature content, including references to pornography and suicide. The book also talks about Santa Claus being make-believe -- one of my pet peeves in kids' books, since kids come to terms with Santa Claus at a variety of ages. Nevertheless, I do think the book is well written, highly entertaining, very funny at times, and thought provoking in a positive way.
