Little Brother by Cor Doctorow

Name: Sara G. Grade: 10
Title & Author:  Little Brother by Cor Doctorow
What was your impression of this book?:  Good.


Would you recommend this book to a friend: Yes.

What was your favorite part? 

My favorite part is when Evangeline cures the butterfly without even noticing it. I liked it because butterflies often represent change and this scene definitely foreshadows the big change that was about to occur in the book, which pushed me into finishing it. 
Who was your favorite character? Why?My favorite character is Evangeline because she is very real, her character displays pretty well a sixteen year old girl. I think this helped the story a lot since the was some reality to all the crazyness that was going on.

Write a small summary (without giving away the ending)

Her mother is suffering from cancer, and her sister, Karen, although giving all she can give isn't able to hold up the house without her. Barbara is bullied in school constantly by a girl named Taylor, and she is constantly pestered by school guidance counselors and principals. But, Barbara meets a new girl named Sophie who may be able to accept her for who she is and what she does...kill giants.
