ALCAPONE DOES MY SHIRTS

Hello everyone...hopefully you are enjoying your break and getting your reading done too!
Some things I want you to consider while reading:
1. Do Moose's parents put too much responsibility on him when it comes to Natalie?
2. How much does peer pressure affect you at school? Would you choose the wrong crowd if it meant popularity?
3. How would you deal with Piper?
4. Do you think that Piper abuses her position of being the warden's daughter? How so?
5. Why does Natalie going to the Marinoff school bother Moose so much?
6. If you had a child that had autism, what would you do? How would you handle everyday situations?
7. Do you think the opinion of people has changed towards people with mental disabilities? What about physical disabilities?
8. Do you think if you had the chance to get your laundry done by a "big-time" or "famous" criminal, you would do it?
9. Do you think that Moose should stand up to Piper and his parents? How would you do that?
10. Did the book end the way you thought it would? Explain.

If you want you can answer these questions and see what your classmates say. I will check back and answer any questions that you may have about the book. Have a happy read!
