Schooled by Gordon Korman is about a boy name Capricorn Anderson. Cap is is his nickname. He has never eaten a hot dog, watched television, or seen a computer because he lives on a farm. Garland Farm to be specific. The farm grows fruits and vegetables. His life was extremely basic, he thought he’d live their the rest of his life but, he was wrong. When his home-school teacher, Rain, gets injured by falling off a tree while picking plums, Cap is forced to go somewhere else. But not just anywhere, a school. A middle school. A public middle school. He is forced to go to Claverage Middle School. Not only that, he doesn’t fit in and he can’t make friends. He has long hair that is dirty and has never been combed, does Tai Chi on the lawn, and wears rags for clothing. He is to stay at the school counselor’s house. You’d think that’d be a little better? No! The school counselor’s has a terrible daughter that drives Cap crazy! The bully of the school, Zach Powers, is waiting for something special to happen to Cap. But what?? Read Schooled to find out the terrible twist that happened.

I loved this book. It was a quick read though. It is worth six points. Happy reading! Enjoy! ^^
