"Terrific" - Free Choice/ Fiction
"Terrific", written by Jon Agee, is a very funny fiction book. A man named Eugene wins an all-expenses-paid cruise to Bermuda. Eugene is very negative, and says that he will probably get a sunburn. He had no idea that something worse would happen. His ship sinks and he ends up stranded on a tiny island. That's were he meets a parrot who happens to know about building boats. The two castaways team up and make their escape. I really enjoyed this book. I think that it would an appropriate read for any students third through fifth grade. It shows students the importance of thinking positively and working with others to be successful.
