Another Jerry Spinelli novel!

~We started our third novel of the year this week!  We are reading another novel by Jerry Spinelli...and yes it is also loosely connected to the American Revolution.....well, at least Washington and Valley Forge!  This is the story of a young boy orphaned, homeless, and a school dropout by the age of 11!  He encounters all sorts of ordinary people and enhances their lives through his "third grade" eyes!
