 Book review
In the beginning Joey is mad because his parents just got a divorce. His mother gets married to his new step father. Joey has to adjust to his new father and his dog. At school his teacher treats him bad because Joey has not been act good. He thinks that he should be in a gifted class. In the middle he is going to his friend house when he leaves the gate open. The dog gets out. When he returned he notices that he can't find the dog. He looks everywhere. He tries to find her before his step-father comes back. You will have to read the book to find out what happens. I liked this book very much. I thought it was a great learning experience. I think it would be a great multicultural book. If you are a teacher, you should read this book to your kids. I enjoyed reading this book. I think you should buy this book. It teaches you how to do with a divorce. You should consider buying this book. It was really fun reading this book. It was one of the greatest books I have ever read. I think this book reminds me of Holes. How Zero loses his mom and tries to find her when he gets older.
 not a good book
I think this book, In a scale from 1-10 is a 5. There wasn�t any major conflict in the story, and the worst thing the main character does is lose his stepfathers dog, and steel some cupcakes from a drugstore. The story is about a boy who�s parents have just divorced, so he�s having trouble in school. The main character, Joey, gets in fights with other school kids. His best friends are D. J.,(Not a good name on the authors part) and Denise. His only other troubles are his teacher Miss Hamlin, whom he hates. She is a new teacher and doesn�t have a clue about teaching. In total I think this book STINKS!!!!!
THE BEST BOOK THAT I HAVE EVER READ!!!!!!
I thought that Chevrolet Sarutdays was the greatest book ever. It talked about real life situations that some kids these days go through today. All the things that are explained in the book are situations that kids and step parents go through everyday, for example the step parent trying to dot hing with the child that the child doesn't want to do with them because they're are not their real parents. I recomend that you get your hands on this book fast, because it is flat out the best!!!!!
Divorce is a piece of the fabric of our society
Chevrolet Saturdays is a wonderful novel! This is the first book I've read which discusses the themes of divorce and remarriage in the African-American home. As I read this book to my class, I began to realize how much divorce had become a part of the fabric of our society. By studying Joey and his coping mechanisms, I could then begin to understand some of my own classroom children who have experienced this same thing. I highly recommend this book.
