The View from Saturday

by E.L. Konigsburg
Realistic Fiction/ Middle School

I just finished reading The View from Saturday which I was excited to read since I loved From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler. Honestly, it was a tough start. I did though enjoy the book and really appreciated the message it offers. E.L. Konigsburg took four unique characters and related them through their experiences/ journeys. Students who understand and appreciate gifted students with remarkable amounts of knowledge would appreciate this story. It is great for teaching about character traits because these four have so many different qualities from one another, but yet they connected to become a team called The Souls.
