The Star Pupil February 14, 2008 Steven Craft (LEXINGTON, KY United States) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Well, what can I say! i just read "The Star Pupil" at the behest of my 6 year old grandson who insisted that I would like the book.Yes, I agreed to read it (in order to discuss the story with him)not realizing that this is a book for Adults(as well). After reading the "The Star Pupil" It was apparent that the genius in its characters is actually a blueprint for making choices and that all choices lead to the inevitably correct conclusion. You as a reader will agree that this book is brilliant, captivating and most importantly, a keen lesson for living life. Recommended for children from 2 to 92...5 star Do not leave this world without reading "The Star Pupil"
