This review is from: State Fair (Bur Oak Book) (Paperback)
Here is one example of where I felt that the movie(s), that were based on this book, were better than the book itself. I loved the Pat Boone remake but wished that it contained more of the fair goings on. I had hoped that the book would contain more on that, but sadly it did not.

I found the author's writting style tedious, and I also did not appreciate the "low" morals displayed by the (post) teens, as depicted in this book. It was obviously written from the male point of view.
