"The Wednesday Wars" is about a boy named Holling Hoodhood who didn't live either on the north or south side of Long Island but right in the middle. His teacher disliked him for no good reason but he had to stay with her by himself every Wednesday afternoon because the North and South sides of long Island went to church. Soon Mrs. Baker, his teacher, had him reading, reciting, and reviewing Shakespeare which he thought he would dread but he loved it! They got each other out of tough situations and slowly liked being with each other. This book is about life and adventures of a 7th grader.
It was most likely given this title because every Wednesday he would be with his teacher and read Shakespeare which he thought would be a battle or war.
4 stars - It was a great book and I recommend it to others.
