Ratfink by Marcia Jones - OPTIONAL

 Jones, Marcia Thornton Ratfink, 218 pgs. Dutton Children's Books, 2010. Language - G, Sexual Content - G; Violence - G; Logan isn't a liar, he just tells stories--stories that get him in trouble. But this year, going into fifth grade, it's going to be different. Well, Logan didn't anticipate Emily. Emily has appointed herself to get Logan in trouble at every possible moment and she's good at it. Ratfink entertained me for an afternoon, but how Emily and Logan's parents acted bugged me. I couldn't get over how obnoxious they were and how they treated Logan. I liked the stories Logan and his grandfather came up with though. They were the best parts for me. EL - OPTIONAL. Reviewer: CCH
