I think that this was a good book that kids who have to move to a new state can relate to. (

I read the book, The Kid in the Red Jacket, by Barbara Park. I reccommend this book because it is hilarious! This book is about a boy named Howard Jeeter who moves from Arizona to Massachusetts and he has trouble along the way but he solves his problems. (
