The View from Saturday.

Read All About It!

Who was Mrs. Olinski going to chose for the sixth-grade Academic Bowl team? In her first year back teaching following a car accident that resulted in her use of a wheelchair, Mrs. Olinski felt a little unsure about some things. One thing she was sure about was the four students she had chosen for the Academic Bowl team. But why? And could Noah, Nadia, Ethan, and Julian get anywhere in the competition? Ms. Konigsburg’s 1997 Newbery Medal Winner will give you a great view from Saturday.

By E. L. Konigsburg. The View from Saturday. New York: Atheneum, 1996. 163 pages. Fiction. Suggested for ages 9-12.

Reviewer: Maggie, 11 yrs old from Syracuse, New York.

I thought the book was more complicated in the beginning. I really understood the book better in the end. It was a good book and now my class is having an academic bowl just like Ephiny. Except we are only using our 6th grade class. I will very much enjoy this considering I am one of the 6 captains.
