Summary: Short But A Great Story
Comment: Rewind is a great and surprising book. It is by William Sleator. It has lot of twists that will shock you. When Peter (the main character) dies in the story. He dies by getting hit by a car and he gets another chance to live. The first time he died, he was upset and ran across the street. So if he gets upset, he has to run across the street because that is how he died to first time. Each time he dies, he gets to choose what place and time he wants to go back. The first time he dies he chooses to go back to the day before he dies. He still dies and gets another chance. I think he changes by learning to do the right things and choosing and knowing what to do. On the last chance he has to live he chooses to go back 5 months before his first death to try to change almost everything bad that happened. Peter doesn't know that he is adopted and when he finds out he is he is really upset. The other important characters are Peter's parents and his friends/teachers. Sad but true this book has won no awards. The setting of the book is in the 1990's in the USA. This book caught my attention because I couldn't find a book to read so I picked up this one and I thought it might be good after I read the back and the cover caught my eye to. I read it. It was fantastic. The way that the story went, you couldn't put it down. The age of people that should read this is 5th-7th grade because it has all kinds of twists that would satisfy the reader. William Sleator's style is the keep-you-hanging-style. If you read this book you would have to keep reading and reading. The only thing that I didn't like was that the book could have been longer because he should have said what happened after he survived. The mood of this story is sad, happy, and surprising mood. The genre of this story is a mystery.
My bottom line is that this book is great and people should read it.
P.S. tell your friends to read this if you like it.

Summary: Amelia's review
Comment: Rewind by William Sleator was published in 2001. The main character is Peter. The book starts when Peter gets hit by a car. When he gets to heaven he hears a voice that says he has another chance, but he only has twelve hours to decide what he's going to do so he dosen't die again. After he comes back to life, Peter finds out that his parents are going to have a baby and that he is adopted. All Peter wants to do is prove to his parents that he isn't a good for nothing kid, and he does, but how? I want you to figure that out by yourself. I think the moral of this story is even if your adopted you're parents still love you! I gave this book a 5 star rating, and recomend this book to ages 8and up!

Summary: Rewind to live
Comment: Rewind is an awesome book to read. It's about a boy who gets hit by a car and dies. Then he is given 3 chances to go back in time with his memory of what happened to change the outcome. He can't just stop himself form running into the car, he has to go back farther and figure out how to make things right. Along the book he has to deal with things like, finding out he's adopted, his mother is about to have a baby and when he does a project in art, his parents think it's a waste of his time. It maybe be kind of short but worth reading. Enjoy!
