The Alligators
by Updike, John
Published in 1989, The Alligators by John Updike tells the story of Charlie as he joins the others in his fifth grade class in tormenting and ridiculing the unpopular new girl Joan.

i really enjoyed this book! But, I have a question what is the theme? Some reasons of why i love it is because i love romance! it was wonderful seeing how Charlie was a bully at first but then he loved Joan!
