Camille McPhee Fell Under the Bus by Kristen Tracy


Tracy, Kristen Camille McPhee Fell Under the Bus, 293. Delacorte Press, 2009. Language- G (0 swears, 0 “f”) Sexual Content- G; Violence- G; Camille McPhee’s life is classified in the “unfair” category; with her parents fighting, her cat missing, being made fun of due to a larger-than-normal-sized head and having fallen under the bus, and having her friend move to Japan and not give her any letters, Camille still tries to see the bright side of things. I really enjoyed reading this book. The various messages it gave were fantastic, and the book was well-written to fit the personality of a fourth-grader and to glimpse some of life’s hard problems. EL-MS - ADVISABLE. A.W.
