Editorial Review:
Jeremy Fink has been obsessed with the meaning of life ever since a box from his father arrived at his house five years after his father was killed in a car accident. Jeremy is determined to find the missing keys that will open the box that supposedly contains the meaning of life. Jeremy and his best friend Lizzy make it their summer quest to get inside the mysterious box. But after getting into some trouble, they get stuck doing community service together, helping an antique shop owner deliver things to different parts of the city. It turns out that these deliveries aren't always ordered, the recipients react unexpectedly, some with anger, some with tears. As Jeremy and Lizzy's summer adventures continue, they begin to discover the meaning of life and themselves along with it.

Rating:  - disturbing for slightly younger readers
We have a 10 year old daughter, a Reader...she picks up books when she wakes up, at meals, in the car, at downtimes, at bedtime, when we don't know where she is...if you have a child like that, you recognize her. :) She reads all the time, books above and below her "level".
This book upset her - not in a good way. The father consulted a psychic and found out when he would die; the kids contacted neighbors who used a Ouija board; many psychic elements contributed to the kids' Search...if ... Read More

Rating:  - JEREMY FINK AND THE MEANING OF LIFE
"What is the meaning of life?" If you have the answer, please share it. That one question that we begin to ask ourselves when we start on the road the emotional and spiritual maturity is the hardest of all to answer, so, I'm asking you, could I get a little help here?!
In attempting to explore the depth of this question and its answer, author Wendy Mass has written a story of soon-to-be thirteen-year-old Jeremy Fink, a boy who receives a mysterious gift from his deceased father. The story is ... Read More
Rating: - A must read for a child who is growing up
As a teacher, I've given this book as a gift to a departing student that needed something to hold on to. Life brings trouble, even to 9 and 10 year olds. This book takes a child's perspective on the what is really important in life, and about the choices you make, and leads a reader to explore their existence. It's deep, but within reach. It also would be a great discussion opener for a family.
