North

North was written by Donna Jo Napoli. North is a fictional story. I chose to read this book because I was looking for a suspenseful story.

In this story, Alvin wants his overprotective mother to leave him alone. So when she has Mrs.Keeys walk Alvin to school when Alvin was 12 years old. That's when Alvin realizes that he cant deal with that any longer. So he leaves....

I liked that this book had such a good plot and very good characters. I don't like that Alvin left his mom at the age of 12. This book is appropriate for ages 10+. If you like suspenseful books then you will defiantly like this book.
