Transcript: Max's Book Review Doug Hoo is a very talented high school track runner. Doug's father owns a chinese restaurant. Doug's partner is Theo Theodorakis. Sydelle Pulaski Chris is a very skilled bird watcher and can identify any bird. Chris is in a wheelchair and has trouble expressing his thoughts. His partner in the Westing Game is Denton Deere The Westing game is an anxiety builder throughout it's pages. This is a exiting and thrilling novel by Ellen Raskin that you wont put down till you find your self reading the authors notes! It's about A man with $200 million but more specifically his will. The will is a challenge between 16 heirs trying to find out who murdered the wealthy Sam Westing through bombings, robbers, and many,many twists and turns. I would recommend this book to anyone 9 and above. Before you read anything else read The Westing Game! Doug Hoo Theo Theodorakis Ryan's Book Review A grumpy restauranteur who is the father of Doug Hoo and husband of Madame Hoo. His partner in the Westing Game is Grace Wexler. Sydelle Pulaski is a secretary that lives on the 3c floor of Sunset Towers and feels that no one notices or cares about her. So, she has an artistic talent of painting her crutches. Her partner is Angela. The Westing Game by Ellen Raskin is a triller and gets better each chapter. A multi millionaire Sam W. Westing was murdered. 16 of his heirs gather at the mansion. They were all teamed up in the game room. 2 hiers were getting married. They don't know they were related to each other until they saw them in the mansion. 4 bombs went off in the hotel Sunset Towers. 2 bombs went off in the Hoo's reasterant at the top. 1 bomb in the coffe shop. 1 bomb in the elevater. I would recomend this book to kids 8 and up because it would be to scary for babies tots and little kids. Madame Hoo Ever wondering about what book you should read? Well if you like mysteries, action, bombs, murders, and a on the edge cliff hanger.Then you should try the exciting book The Westing game. this book is 16 heirs who are gathered at there old uncle sams funeral and find out the 200,000,000 in his will is now the prize in the contest known as the westing game. the point of the game is to find the murderer of Sam Westing . I would reccomend this book to kids because of the large amount of action. one of the great things about this book is the mystery you can try to figure out who the cunning murderer is. With cliff hanging and suspense this a great intresing book. The Westing Game is an exciting adventure book. I felt like I was one of the heirs! I liked how Ellen Raskin kept switching off from character to character. But, it is a little confusing knowing who is who and what they are doing, but that is what also makes the book interesting. I reccomend this book to readers who love suspense, adventure, and mysteries! If you like all of these, this book is for you! Grace Windsor Wexler Sam Westing is the reason that the 16 heirs are there and playing his crazy game. His nickname was "Old Uncle Sam". Flora Baumbach Abbey's Westing Game review DIEGO'S BOOK REVIEW Grace Wexler is a know-it-all woman who is Turtle and Angela's mother and claims to be a great niece of Sam Westing. Her partner in the game is Mr. Hoo. Sam Westing Flora Baumbach is a retired dressmaker. She is Turtle's best friend and an adopted grandmother. As luck would have it, Turtle is her partner. Madame is Mr. Hoo's second wife and is an immigrant from China. She is also the cook at Hoo's On First. Her partner is Jake Wexler. This very thirilling book by Ellen Raskin is filled with clues to make you gasp. Sam Westing gathers up 16 heirs with unidentified identities. I would reccomend The Westing Game to families and children ages 9 and up. With uniqe characters such as, Madame Hoo, Chris Theodorakis, Turtle Wexler, and Flora Buambach. You can never put this book down until you've reached the back cover. Berthe Erica Crow The Westing Game by Ellen Raskin is a fast-paced, cliff-hanging, "I must know more!" novel that I would recommend for kids 9 and up. With it's 16 main characters and 15 points of view, readers will get caught up in the residents of Sunset Towers' dilemmas and daily dramas. Sam Westing's game has sent these otherwise slightly off people into complete madness. For example, a completely normal child became a bomber just because she felt like people just looked at her from the outside and no one bothered to get to know her on the inside! I give this book five out of five stars because it has a plot that is always moving and progressing. If you get a little bored in the beginning, I advise you to keep reading!!! Theo is Chris' older brother that has a dream to become a writer when he becomes older. His partner is the Westing Game is Doug Hoo. Chris Theodorakis Matthew Book Review The Westing Game Seoyeon's Book Review Turtle Wexler Turtle is a smart 13 year old who is protective of her braid and plays the stock market. Her partner in the Westing
