The Book "As Ever Gordy" by Mary Downing Hahn is a great book. I really enjoyed it. This book is about a boy named Gordy going through rough times. His grandmother has just past away and he has to go back to College Hill to live with one of his older brothers. Meanwhile he is trying to impress a girl named Elizabeth Crawford (A.K.A Lizard) , but every time he tries to impress her something goes wrong. This book is about alot of things tough times, friendship, family, and friends. This is a very funny but sad book. I recamend this book to everyone.

Mary Downing Hahn is a great author, it is a wonderful book. Make sure you read the first to books before, stepping on the cracks, and following my own footsteps.

Gordy Smith has only one choice when his grandmothe dies: Go back to his old town in Maryland where he is hated and ignored. Attracted to his old friend and rival. "Lizard". Gordy is baffled on how to show that to her. Two thumbs up.

Gordy is still an angry young man. The sudden death of his grandmother mean that he and June must return to Maryland to live with his brother, his wife and her son, who is not pleased with having an older brother to share a room. Gordy soon finds himself running with the same crowd which got him in trouble in the first place. He meets "Lizard" and is attracted by her but unable to find the right way to let her know this. When everything comes to a climax as Gordy and Lizard's boy friend get in a fight at a school dance and Gordy is later persuaded to throw cherry bombs in the foyer of a professor's house the reader is sure that Gordy will finally be really punished. But Lizard's dad, Gordy's understanding sister-in-law, and a surprising understanding principal work to get Gordy started on what might finally be a positive direction. The characters are excellent and while reading the book, I was often saying to myself, "Oh, No, Gordy, don't do that". Very realistic and a good sequel. For the older readers who can understand his feelings. Could, perhaps, use with Wringer and other stories by Spinelli.
