Product Description:
Will anyone take on Jake Semple?
Jake Semple is notorious. Rumour has it he burned down his old school and got kicked out of every school in his home state.
Only one place will take him now, and that's a home school run by the Applewhites, a chaotic and hilarious family of artists. The only one who doesn't fit the Applewhite mold is E.D. -- a smart, sensible girl who immediately clashes with the unruly Jake.
Jake thinks surviving this one will be a breeze . . . but is he really as tough or as bad as he seems?

Surviving The Applewhites is a fantastic book. But there are parts I don't like about the Applewhites. I don't like the how much of a punk they are. But as I was reading I found out that the parents are in jail so that explains alot. When you see the cover you are going to see a kid that wears alot of black. You are also going to see the kid with alot of piercings. i thought he was a punk because of all the smoking he does. Really he is a good kid when You read the book you will find out stuff about him that will make you change your mind. I thought this book was great and you should read the book so you can comment on the book too. SO READ THE BOOK!!!

Surviving the Applewhites is a pretty cool book.
Jake is my favorite character. I like his hair and his necklace and his eyebrow ring.
When Jake went to get the butterfly for E.D that is like me because I would do that for a nice person too.
It makes me sad for Jake because he isn't with his parents. It makes me think about when I am bad in school.
Teenage boys would like this book better than girls.
I like the beginning when he very first got to the farm and starts to know people.
When it's E.D's turn it gets boring.
I would read this book again but I want to read another very good book like the very first one.

Surviving The Applewhites is a awesome book and I think a lot of people would like it. Jake is my favorite character in the book because he dresses wierd. I think I'm like Jake because we both dress cool to get attention. This book makes me feel happy for Winston the dog because since Jake came the dog started being take care of and being loved. I think the kind of people hat the book would be good for is ages 6-12. I would like to read another like this book but not read it again.
My favorite part was when Destiny starts cussing. My least favorite part was the beginning of the story.

Surviving the Applewhites is an awesome book! It's about a delinquent kid named Jake. Who goes through a lot of hard stuff in his life. His parents went to jail for selling wine. Jake smokes, cusses and has bright blue hair in spikes. Also there is a rumour that Jake burned down his last school. So he now goes to a school named Creative Academy held by a crazy family called the Applewhites. They are the only people who believe there is any good in Jake. The book is about Jake going through changes. Jake has a little admirer named Destiny Applewhite! Destiny is trying everyway possible to be just like Jake. Jake also has a little admirer the Applewhites' dog named Winston. He looooooooooves Jake!!! He always barks when Jake leaves the house. E.D. one of the Applewhite girls doesn't care for Jake at all. She thinks he is absolutely disgusting in everyway. Read the Book to find out what changes Jake makes and what choices he decides to make. And to find out what weird things Destiny does to try to be like Jake.

My son was required to read this book for class. Instead of going to the library and checking it out I figured I would buy it here and donate it to the class when he was done. He read it and said it was a really good book.
