Tangerine (****)


This book is about a boy who moves to Florida into a town called Tangerine. His name is Paul Fisher, he has a special ability and needs to wear thick glasses according to a serious injury. Apparently it is because he stared into a solar eclipse for too long, but he thinks his parents are hiding something. His brother, Erik, and his dad have a Erik Fisher football dream. His dad ignores him most of the time. He wants to be a soccer player, but at his new school he cannot play because of his glasses. The school, which is basically a whole bunch of portables connected by boardwalks, falls into a sink whole (which no one knew was there) and had to go to another middle school, Lake Windsor, and his mom destroyed the files so he could play soccer. Read the book to find out more.

This book is 294 pages long. I'll give it four out of five stars (****).

Tangerine by, Emma Fox
