I havDriver’s Ed By Caroline B. Cooney The book I read is called Driver’s Ed. It is about a girl named Remy, her friend Lark, and her other friend Morgan. The first 25 pages of the book start off by describing Remy’s family, which includes her mom, dad, younger brother Mac, and younger brother Henry. Then it talks about Morgan’s family. It consists of his mom, dad, and little sister Starr. His dad is going to run for governor, and it pretty much says how perfect his family and life is. It also lets you know that Remy has a crush on Morgan, and Morgan has a crush on Remy. Anyway, in this class, the teacher has a lot of trouble with names. He announces three names to go drive, and Remy, Lark, and Morgan drive most of the time. He calls out Remy, Christine, and Morgan. Lark then switches with Christine. Remy is driving, and she accidentally drives over the median and leaves some of the muffler behind. Then Lark drives and runs a red light. It doesn’t let you know how Morgan did, but when they get back from driving, they get an idea that they should all steal road signs for their room. In the next 25 pages, Remy, Lark, and Morgan plan to go out to steal their signs. Lark is sick though, so she doesn’t go. None of them have their licenses, so Nicky Buddy drives. He is one year older than all of them, and he lives by Morgan so he is friends with him. Remy decides that she want a Morgan Road sign, they get a Thickly Settled sign for Lark, and Morgan takes a Stop sign. Also, Remy and Morgan kiss when they are in the car. When Remy comes home, Mac starts to question her and she has to hide the Morgan Road sign in the bushes to make sure that Mac doesn’t tell their mom what she did. In the next 25 pages, Morgan begins to think about the fact that he is going out with Remy now. He is worried about what is going to happen in school the next day. In concert choir, he doesn’t even look at her, or talk to her. He just focuses on points on the wall, or on the floor. Then at home, Remy’s mom finds out that she is going out with Morgan, and she gives her approval of him. Then it’s the next day in Driver’s Ed, and Remy, Lark, and Morgan decide that they better not go drive 3 days in a row, so they stay behind.
