The Boy Who Lost his Face by Louis Sachar - review

When I first saw this book I did judge it by its cover! I thought it would be something gruesome about a boy losing his face! But let me tell you it isn't anything of the sort. And I will leave you to read it to find out. David and his friends all go to spy on poor Mrs Bayfield to steal her cane. But it all goes horribly wrong and David believes he's been cursed by her. Now he cannot stop thinking about it and is careful what he does. His friends now are not hanging out with him but he slowly finds 2 new friends, Mo and Larry. They get teased and called names and that is what adds to the suspicion of the curse. Is it a curse or is David just turning into a total loser? I deeply recommend it to everyone. It is certainly the best book I have ever read. Want to tell the world about a book you've read? Join the site and send us your review!
