Book Synopsis Double-Click for Trouble by : Chris Woodworth

Download or read book Double-Click for Trouble written by Chris Woodworth. This book was released on 2015-04-28. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eddie McCall is a good kid. He does his homework, picks up around the house, and cooks dinner for his single mom when she has to work late at a Chicago hotel. Then Eddie's best friend, Whip, shows him a printout from the Internet- a picture of an honest-to-gosh naked woman-and suddenly Eddie can't seem to think about anything else. He knows his mom will be upset if she sees the sites he's visiting. Still, he doesn't expect her to ship him off to her hometown of Sheldon, Indiana, to live with his great-uncle Peavey for an entire month. Peavey isn't exactly the father figure thirteen-year-old Eddie's been looking for. He spits tobacco juice into a can, calls a toilet a "commode," and certainly doesn't own a computer. As it turns out, however, both Peavey McCall and Sheldon, Indiana, hold some very surprising secrets . . . The author captures two worlds in this tender and funny look at a boy learning what it really means to be a man.

Book excerpt: After Ivy's stepfather disappears, Ivy's mama begins waitressing at Dining Divinely to make ends meet.

She also has to fend off the nosy Pastor Harold; stop Caleb from filling JJ's head with lies; and keep her best friend, Ellen, from knowing anything about her embarrassing situation at home. Ivy has always found out all she needs to know by lurking in the shadows (some might call it "eavesdropping"). But as things at home become more complicated, she learns to step into the light and not only listen but speak up, in Ivy in the Shadows by Chris Woodworth.

Download or read book Georgie's Moon written by Chris Woodworth. This book was released on 2015-04-28. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Georgie Collins knows exactly how to make it through life in a new town. Before her father left for Vietnam, he gave her standing orders never to let anyone mess with her, and she won't. As long as she doesn't allow the enemy to smell her fear, Georgie will survive seventh grade in Glendale, Indiana, just fine. But that doesn't mean she'll like it. How could she? Her school has forced her to participate in a "Good Deeds Program," so she's stuck visiting old people in a nursing home. What's more, her classes are filled with "peacenik" kids who think the war is wrong - including her only friend. At home, it seems that the kids her mom is babysitting are constantly whining at her. Worst of all, Georgie's father has been gone a long time - and even though he promised to send her his love every night on the moon, sometimes that's not enough. This story of a feisty girl's fierce devotion to her father is a powerful reflection on the ravages of war.
