Produktbeschreibungen
From Booklist
Gr. 4^-6. A sequel to Banks' Project Wheels (1993) and The New One (1994), this readable novel concerns the trials of sixth-grader Judge Jenkins, recently diagnosed with dyslexia and struggling to learn how to learn. When his mother threatens to send him to a different school next year unless he shows that he can succeed at Plank Elementary, Judge pins his hopes on winning the Einstein Rally. He tussles with packaging his egg for a safe landing in the egg drop competition and keeping his twin brother/rally partner out of trouble until the contest. Without stopping the book's flow to discuss dyslexia, Banks makes some good points about grades, intelligence, and learning styles. Judge's first-person narration is conversational and refreshingly candid. Despite the novel's rather abrupt ending, children will look forward to reading more about Judge, his brother, and their friends. Carolyn Phelan

From School Library Journal
Grade 4-6-A fun, entertaining novel about Judge and Jury, twins involved in a science project. Judge, the quieter and more sensitive of the two, is dyslexic. He is eager to participate in the Einstein Rally held at a local college because it would bring up his science grade. His mother is thinking about moving him to a private school so he can experience some different teaching methods, but he does not want to be separated from his friends and hopes the egg-drop event will save him. Jury is more interested in playing "pom-pom tackle" than in working on the project, but his love for his brother shines through in his teasing and his willingness to finally pitch in. The story, told by Judge, moves along rapidly as he and Jury try to determine the best way to cushion a raw egg so it will not break when dropped off a tall building. This is a special story that fills a need for well-written books about African American children. An added plus is that the subject of dyslexia is presented sensitively and authoritatively.

Scrambled Eggs
This story is about two sixth grade twin brothers who have to work together to help one of them make a higher grade in science. Through out the story, Judge Jenkins is struggling with dyslexia and is having trouble in school. Jury, his twin brother does good in school but only studies get by. Judge needs to get at least a D in science and the only way is to enter in the Science Rally and place in the top three. He signs him and his brother up without asking Jury. Jury is angry, but in the end realizes that he has to help his brother do good on the project or the both of them will be sent to a private school. They compete with other school and do pretty well. Read the book and find out what happens.
In my opinion the book was not very good. I did not find it exciting and it did not keep my attention. Most of the book has to deal with dyslexia and all the problems that go along with it. There are a few funny parts where the brothers are fighting and the mother is messing around with them. I would recommend this book to someone who does not like adventure. I was disappointed with the ending because it leaves you hanging.

All Cracked Up Over Egg-Drop Blues
23. Februar 2001
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
I would rate this book between six and seven. This was a good book if you like books where people focus on doing stuff at the last minute. The part of the book I liked the most was Jury helping his family save their farm. I liked the book overall but I didn't like the way the book shifts from Jury doing school projects to him getting money as a reward for his science project. To me the book skipped around a lot. I didn't feel that the book had a lot of details surrounding all the characters. Another book I would compare to this one is "Red Terror". In that book the main characters (a little girl the same age as Jury), gets money and helps her family. She buys her mom's necklace back from their neighbor that belonged to her grandmother at one time. The necklace was given to her mother by her mother and her mom sold it for money to buy alcohol because she was an alcoholic. The girl also helps her mom recover. Both kids in the books helped their families to recover from problems. I liked this book because kids were doing something to save belongings of their families. I think this shows how strong kids and families can be. It was a good book to teach some lifelong lessons.
