Rachel is a seventh grader and a super overachiever. She comes from a family where overachieving is valued, and her mother, an important trial lawyer, is the ultimate in overachieving. Rachel's sister Jess isn't perfect, but she gets along well with Rachel and is surviving high school despite her bad acne. The only problem in the family is Rachel's brother, Charles. He has been in boarding school, but proved to be such a discipline problem they expelled him. Now Rachel's peace and quiet is shattered when her brother comes home and looks for ways to torment her and the rest of her family.
Family dinners are no longer tranquil; Charles manages to ruin them by saying nasty things to the rest of his family members. He harasses his sisters and is downright rude to his parents. Rachel can't stand him, but she doesn't know what to do to get him to stop the way he is behaving. Her parents are at a loss, too.
To make matters even worse, Rachel's two best friends seem to be getting even closer together, and Rachel worries that her constant state of stress might be pushing them away. Will Rachel be able to survive the pressures of this year without snapping?
I liked the family relationships highlighted in this story. I liked the way Rachel and her sister interacted and the way Rachel and her parents interacted. It was interesting to see how her family fit together without Charles and how they fit together with him. I also liked Rachel's cousin and the different perspective she gave on Rachel's life.
I didn't like that this book didn't really have any conclusion. Did things get better? What happened after the Ellis Island incident? What was going on with Steph and Alison? I felt like the book should have covered a couple more months, and that would have given me time to get to know Charles a little bit better. |

| Here's to You, Rachel Robinson, is a very good book. Rachel, the main character, is in 7th grade, has an older sister suffering from a severe acne problem, and a brother, Charles. Charles is a huge trouble maker! All he ever does is get in trouble. He was sent away to boarding school, but was kicked out, because he never turned any work in. I really enjoyed this book, because it showed what it would be like to have a VERY annoying brother, who is always making you angry. This book also showed what it's liek to be a "normal" teenager today, becasue it tells about her crushes, school problems, adn her friendships. I would deffiently reccommend this book to anyone who enjoys reading about what it is liek to be a teenager today in Judy Blume's eyes. This was a terriffic book that many people would enjoy. |

This book has one of the most common genres which is realistic fiction. There are four main characters and they are Rachel, Charles, Allison, and Stephanie (Steph for short). This story is mostly taken place in a big house in the country around the 1900's .The biggest thing that happened to the people in this story is when Rachel's big brother comes home from boarding school after being expelled. He is not a very good person because he has done many bad things that affect the Robinsons life including changing all of their last names! A little bit about Charles had changed at the end of the book and I think that he only changed because of the good attitude that rubbed off of his family members and onto him. This book was definitely a page turner because in every sentence there was something interesting and cool. The character that I mostly relate to is Stephanie. The reasons why are because she loves having fun and is very out there with her feeling because she expresses her feelings clear and isn't afraid about what people think of her. Also, if someone says something that sounds like an insult (even when it isn't) I would ask `What are you talking about? What do you mean? Can you please back that up?' I leaned that in this book everyone has a good side to them even if it is very deep. Judy Blume has a very good talent in writing. Even though you may think that she is a child writer she is starting to write more adult books. I really did enjoy this book and do plan to read more of them!!
