The View from Saturday by E.L. Konigsburg Book Summary

From the Newbery Medal–winning author of the beloved classic From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler comes four jewel-like short stories—one for each of the team members of an Academic Bowl team—that ask questions and demonstrate surprising answers.

How had Mrs. Olinski chosen her sixth-grade Academic Bowl team? She had a number of answers. But were any of them true? How had she really chosen Noah and Nadia and Ethan and Julian? And why did they make such a good team?

It was a surprise to a lot of people when Mrs. Olinski’s team won the sixth-grade Academic Bowl contest at Epiphany Middle School. It was an even bigger surprise when they beat the seventh grade and the eighth grade, too. And when they went on to even greater victories, everyone began to ask: How did it happen?

It happened at least partly because Noah had been the best man (quite by accident) at the wedding of Ethan’s grandmother and Nadia’s grandfather. It happened because Nadia discovered that she could not let a lot of baby turtles die. It happened when Ethan could not let Julian face disaster alone. And it happened because Julian valued something important in himself and saw in the other three something he also valued.

Mrs. Olinski, returning to teaching after having been injured in an automobile accident, found that her Academic Bowl team became her answer to finding confidence and success. What she did not know, at least at first, was that her team knew more than she did the answer to why they had been chosen.

A view from Saturday. It was an amazing book it has an interesting end and beginning

Musicfreak7. I have never read a book like this before. I like how it shows each of the characters point of view. At first I thought it wasn't going to be interesting and even though it wasnt the best book I have read it sure had the power to keep me reading.

GREAT BOOK!!!👍👍👍. A must read for all ages!!!!!!

Mixed feelings. This is a good book,I will give 5 reasons why I like it,and 2 reasons why I don’t. 1. it’s fun to read. 2. it’s not boring. 3. It is not too easy to read. 4. the book is not inappropriate. 5. it is a good book. 1. The book is a little too short. 2. The book is expensive

Sucky book. Very sucky book

The view from Saturday. This book was based on a boy writing a b&b letter to his grandparents stating tat his year being on the Epiphany team was pretty good and that they won the challenge. Also the book indicates his Izzy Diamondstein and Margy D.. Getting married and Jillian being the best man in replace of Allen his uncle. Jillian doesn't feel to comfy because right after the wedding , his mom & dad get into it with each other and they have a divorce consisting Jillian moving in with his dad in the apartment. But when he visit his mother he gets to be in the epiphany project answering question with Nadia Ethan and Mrs. Olin-ski ........

The view from Saturday. It's a great book. All ages should read this book!!!

The view from Saturday. This book is one of the interesting,coolest and the best book in/@ the world!!!

Great book. Really entertaining, a good read, really funny. You should read it.

Hate it. Most boring book I have ever read!

Inappropriate. This book is entirely inappropriate for children, and a horrid book to adults. I would suggest you not get this and waste your valuable time and money!!!

Disappointment. This book is bad,and inappropriate.A child should not read this book.I personally think that the cussing is bad.It is horrid and a disgrace.

Wow.... E.L. Koningsburg did such an amazing job with this book. I had to read this for school, and I never thought it would be this amazing! I just finished it. And I have to say, the ending part with Mrs. Olinski and Julian's father, with the "Journey-Kindness" message was just so awakening that it so touched my heart. This is the best book I've read so far in my 12 years of life! I recommend this to anyone who wants to read a good book. Wow.

The View from Saturday. Terrible. MADE ME WANNA BARF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't read. Not intriguing at all

Tremendous. It was tremendously horrible I hope everyone takes my advice. Cursing was tolerable for adults but very inappropriate for children. If you want to do good with your valuable time, then DONT read this book.....

Love it. Love the book!

Yuckkkkk. I'm sorry, but I hated this book. We had to read it for school- it was so bad. I don't know if it's just my taste but this book was awful!!!!
