Worth is a book I would recommend to anyone in the world! A. Lafaye is a very talented woman, and if she made a sequel to this wonderful book, it would be the first book I would check out from the school library. I feel so sorry for poor John Worth. He must be feeling as much pain as Nathaniel, with heartaches about his dead family. I still ask myself; WHY NATE? Why should he feel the pain of a busted leg? Why did Belle nearly kill him? Anyways, somehow I knew Nate and John would become pals in the end, but until the orange appeared, and Nathaniel discovered Aneome had given it to him,
I would have never guessed Nate would have a friend at school. There is only one last thing I want to say, it was very courageous of John and Nathaniel to stop those fence-cutters of evil. I recommend you to read the amazing book Worth, because I love this book, and so will you!
