Oggie Cooder

Oggie Cooder #1 (Oggie Cooder)Oggie Cooder #1 by Sarah Weeks

My rating: 2 of 5 stars


This is an odd book about an odd boy named Oggie Cooder. Oggie has a unique talent: he "charves." Charving is carving things, in Oggie's case, states, out of slices of cheese. Oggie charves when he is nervous or anxious or bored. However, when a tv talent show comes to town, Oggie will be faced with a decision to remain true to himself or sell out for the glamour of Hollywood and the pressure of his friends.


The book has a good lesson, but I couldn't wait to get done with it--charving is just not a big interest of mine. Kids in 2nd-3rd grade might enjoy it more than me!
