Johnny Tremain
By:
- Synopsis
- Johnny Tremain tells of the turbulent, passionate times in Boston just before the Revolutionary War. Johnny, a young apprentice silversmith, is caught up in dramatic involvement with Otis, Hancock, and John and Samuel Adams in the exciting currents and undercurrents that were to lead to the Boston Tea Party and the Battle of Lexington - and, finally, a touching resolution of Johnny's personal life. The quotation marks in the book are single quotes, not double except where there is a quote within a quote. In other words, the marks are just the reverse of what one usually find. The pagination is correct. Sometimes the illustration pages were numbered and sometimes they were not. Likewise, the blank pages.

In the beginning something big happens that ruins Johnny's career. In the middle, Johnny goes for a comfort item and it doesn't work.(Hint.The cup)At the end someone dies and Johnny may be able to do something with the help of..... I wouldn't recomend this book because personally I didn't like it, wanted to shread it, and throw it away. I actually skipped the middle. My Best Friend LOVED it, so you either LOVE it, or HATE it.By:Karissa 03/04/04
