Fast Sam, Cool Clyde, and Stuff

Fast Sam, Cool Clyde, and Stuff

Walter Dean Myers

Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot:

When Francis (shortly to be known as Stuff) moved to 116th Street, he didn't know anyone, but that didn't last long. Cool Clyde, Fast Sam, Gloria, BB, Angel and Maria, Chalky and Carnation Charley - they grew close that one eventful year, and nothing was ever like it again. That was the year that modern science got them all in jail; the year Stuff fell in love and was unfaithful; the year Cool Clyde and Fast Sam won the dance contest - almost. In this funny and energetic book, Walter Dean Myers brings to life with warmth and good humor an unusual group of boys and girls, who together grow to know the meaning of friendship.

    Read this book for a book club I’m apart of through work for 7/8th graders. This book touches on a wide range of topics and I was surprised by how well written it was.
