Summary: Surviving the Applewhites- GEE WIZZZZ What a GREAT BOOK
Comment: Jake Semple is probably one of the most evil kids you could meet. Well that's what E.d. Applewhite thought of him when she first saw him. Maybe it was the red spiked hair or all of his piercings but she didn't like him. Jake Semple was kicked out of almost every school in Road Island for almost every thing you could think of. He even burned one school down. After his parents went to jail for selling marijuana to an undercover cop Jake was sent to live with his uncle down south. He got kicked out of another school and then his uncle decided to send him to the Applewhite's to straighten him out. The Applewhites were a family that formed there own school when the public school wouldn't let one of the kids give the Zebra purple stripes. When he arrives he experiences the oddity of the place, in the home school all the students make there own curriculum. And how all the people who live on the farm are as weird as they can get. Mr.Applewhite is a director of local plays an is a starving artist, their uncle makes strange coffee tables and all the children aimlessly mill about on the farm all day. During Jake's first few days at the applewhites he spent the entire time trying to convince himself that he was going to escape or that it would never change him.
I think that this book was an excellent book for anybody who likes to read about troubled people. This book is a quick read and is good for pretty much anybody who likes to read. I give these book 2 thumbs up.

Summary: Surviving the Applewhites
Comment: Surviving The Applewhites is a fiction novel by Stephani S. Tolan, I would recommend this book to people who like to ready about adventure, becuase this book takes you from the family that goes thier seperate ways to the family who works together and accomplishs one big important thing.
Jake Semple was sent to the last school possible, The Creative Accademy. The rumor was he burnt down his old school. when he gets to Wits End E.D. doesn't like the fact that Jake is comming to live with her and her family. jake says "yeah well i don't intend to be here long anyway." Good E.D. thought "Where do you intend to go?" "Rhode island." "If you go back they're going to send you to juvenile hall. they must have some kind of school there. you'd probably like it better than this one." The Applewhites are big on setting your own path, and art. E.D. has to take care of Jake at first until he gets used to the way things are there. Randolf Applewhite and director gets to direct The Sound of Music. He casts Jake as Rolf. As the story goes on Jake becomes more and more of a good kid. He starts to relize that he doesn't want to be bad anymore. When jake and Randolf go to rehersals, One of the cast members falls off the stage and breaks her arm. So Randolf has to cast his son Destiny, a hyper little boy, with a big imagination, as Gretle, but changes Gretle to be Hans the little boy obsessed over hats. Mrs. Montrose cancels the show because Randolf didn't choose her daughter for the Gretle part, so The Applewhites had to think of something fast, E.D. thought they could have the show in thier barn, so the whole Applewhite family gets together to build the stage and get it ready for the show. On the opening night, the show is going good until they run into somebad wheather and all the lights go out. E.D. had to think of something, What would you do? read the book and find out!
