The Misadventures of the Family Fletcher

De: Dana Alison Levy

Narrado por: Dan Woren

”Fans of Beverly Cleary’s Quimbys, Judy Blume’s Hatchers, and, more recently, Jeanne Birdsall’s Penderwicks will fervently hope that more Fletcher misadventures are yet to come.” —School Library Journal, Starred

The start of the school year is not going as the Fletcher brothers hoped. Each boy finds his plans for success veering off in unexpected and sometimes diastrous directions. And at home, their miserable new neighbor complains about everything. As the year continues, the boys learn the hard and often hilarious lesson that sometimes what you least expect is what you come to care about the most.

Praise for The Misadventures of the Family Fletcher

A Junior Library Guild Selection

[set star] ”Their banter is realistic, and the disorder of their everyday lives, convincing. The Fletcher family rules!” —Kirkus Reviews, Starred

”Dana Alison Levy has gloriously reimagined the classic family story into a thoroughly modern mold, and it works perfectly.” —Bruce Coville, bestselling author of My Teacher Is an Alien and the Unicorn Chronicles

[set star] ”With its semi-episodic structure, laugh-out-loud humor, and mix of zaniness and love, Levy’s debut offers something truly significant: a middle-grade family story featuring gay parents and interracial families that is never about either issue.” —School Library Journal, Starred

”Levy provides a compelling, compassionate, and frequently hilarious look at their daily concerns. By book’s end readers will want to be part of (or at least friends with) this delightful family.” —The Horn Book

The Family Fletcher

The Family Fletcher is a very family-friendly book based of a large family of 8 (including the cat and dog). you can enjoy this alone or with friends/family (probably better together).

Awesome

This book is amazing!!!
The plot was great and worked with all of the characters

Review by Isis Jung

Amazing! My favorite part was when Sam started to say assassin, but he said it to slow and it sounded like he was going to say ass. It is not exactly right but here is the line " Ass-" Sam started to say. " Samuel, there will be no swearing at this dinner table!" Dad/Papa said. "

Great storyline!

This is a great book. It shows the love in the fletcher family very clearly, and I loved it

Two Dads

It was not disclosed anywhere in the description about the story having two dads. This goes against our beliefs as a family and forced us to have a conversation earlier than we wanted with our son.
