Jim Ugly Just OK,
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Jim Ugly (Paperback)
My book review is about a book called Jim Ugly. The author of this book is Sid Fleischman. I thought this book was confusing. I didn't like it when the author skipped from one event to the other. An exciting event in this book was when Jake looked all around for his dad. Finally, the best part of the book occurs while he is looking. My favorite character was Jake because he never quit searching for his dad. I wouldn't recommend this book to a friend because it was too confusing and hard to follow. However, if you want to find out what happens next, you can read the book.

Jim Ugly,
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Jim Ugly (Paperback)
Jim Ugly is a book about a boy named Jake and his dog named Jim Ugly. When Jake's father dies he has to stay with his aunt and his uncle but his aunt hates Jim Ugly. She siad that she would shoot him after Jake fell asleep. Jake was going to lt him go until he heard of a treasure that was said to have been stolen by his father. Instead of letting Jim Ugly go he decided to run away because he suddenly did not think his father had really died...
I really liked this book and would recomend it to everyone who likes to read. Jim Ugly is kind of like a mystery because it gives you clues to figure out what happens next but half of the time I was wrong and that the exact opposite happend. It also leaves you hanging for a few chapters. I could not put the book down once I started reaaading. The part that i thought was the funniest was that Jakes aunt kept on and on about that she wanted Jim Ugly gone and his uncle kept telling her that she was not going to kill him and that he told Jake to run away so that she would not kill Jim Ugly.

Jim Ugly
This book will make you want to read it over and over again. The author described the characters very well. I felt like I was the boy in the story. And I felt like I was going along on the journey with the boy and his dad's one man dog. The dog's name is Jim Ugly, but sometimes gets called amigo. The boy went to find his dad. He didn't know if his dad was dead or alive. He heard a myth that his dad got shot and was dead. He went out looking for his dad with his dad's dog. The dog also has the nose of a police dog. The dog ends up needing to run away from the boy because the boy wanted the dog to go find his dad. So the dog went. But the boy didn't find out till the end, if he is dead or alive. I do recommend this book to others that are interested in mystery books. And if you like dogs and adventure.

Jim Ugly Recommended,
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Jim Ugly (Paperback)
I read the book Jim Ugly; the author is Sid Fleichman.The thing I liked best about this book is how Jake uses Jim Ugly to find his father. They never liked each other but then they became friends. My favorite character is Jim, even though he's a dog, he never gives up. I learned to follow your heart from this book and never quit. I recommend this book if you like adventures.
