Nothing

Agee, Jon. Nothing. New York: Hyperion Books for Children, 2007. ISBN: 978-078683694-9.



It's just about five o'clock and Otis just sold his last antique when another customer walked in. It was Suzie Gump, the richest lady in town. "What's for sale," said Suzie. "Nothing," said Otis. "I'll take it!" Suzie said. I think Nothing is a great book because it can be amusing to young kids, but means something to the older kids. It shows how everyone wants what everyone else has, especially when wealthy people or stars have them. It's also good for a laugh too! I recommend this book for ages 5-12 because, like I said, It's amusing and teaches a lesson.
