Alcatraz and the Evil Librarians



Alcatraz vs the Evil Librarians

By Brandon Sanderson

Published by Scholastic Press 2007 308 pages

Genre: Science Fiction, Fantasy, Humor, and Mystery

Reading Level: Ages 9-12

Summary: Alcatraz believes that he is unwanted by everyone. He thinks that parents didn't want him and that is why he has spent his childhood in multiple foster homes. He breaks things without thinking and then one day his inheritance shows, a bag of sand. From that day on, his life is never entirely the same. A world where Librarians are evil and dominating the world and his talent for breaking things is finally appreciated.

Reponse: This book is absolutely wonderful. Alcatraz's point of view of everything is incredibly funny. The entire plot is a little weird, but the twists and turns of it is so completely unexpected that it leaves wondering what will happen next. Alcatraz's world becomes so completely weird that is irreistable.
