Review - Donutheart

The latest book I read, Donutheart by Sue Stauffacher was a fun, lighthearted young adult book. Franklin Delano Donuthead is obsessed with cleanliness, hygiene, and risk avoidance. Fortunately, he has Sarah to fight his battles and help him out of difficult situations. In the end, he ignores his obsessions in turn for helping Sarah, his best friend.

Our library has classified the book as a young adult book, but it could be recommended for older grade school children as well. The content and language are not offensive, but some of the words and content would not be understood by younger children. It's a short 208 pages, and reads fast.

Now it's on to Santa Cruise by Mary Higgins Clark and Carol Higgins Clark.
