Book Review

theodoreboone.jpg Theodore Boone: kid lawyer by John Grisham

Book Review By Lisa Guthals

Synopis

With two attorneys for parents, thirteen-year-old Theodore Boone knows more about the law than most lawyers do. But when a high profile murder trial comes to his small town and Theo gets pulled into it, it's up to this amateur attorney to save the day. Best selling author John Grisham is known for writing adult books. This is his first book for young readers.  I really enjoyed this book. It has alot of suspense and intrigue. I hope you enjoy this book as much as I have. I would recommend 9-11 year olds to give it a try.
