Nothing Ever Happens on 90th Street

The story Nothing Ever Happens on 90th Street is a wonderful and whimsical book. In the beginning of the story Eva's teacher gives her an assignment to write about what happens around her on 90th street. All Eva can think about though is that nothing ever happens on 90th street. But then people from the street begin to visit Eva and talk to her about writing strategies and how to look at the world through their occupation or job. Then at the end of the book a miracle happens; everything that the people of 90th street taught her happens. Action, excitement, everything! Eva writes down what happens around her and creates a wonderful story which turns into the book Nothing Ever Happens on 90th Street.

I think that the author of this story, Roni Schotter, used a young girls troubles and daily life to entertain an audience and to teach a lessons that can be used in a child's or adults life. Some of those lessons are to listen to other people, believe in yourself, and to never lose hope or give up on anything or anyone. I think that Eva is stubborn yet kind and excepting because she was stubborn about her theory that nothing ever happens on 90th street, but she was excepting and kind to the people who tried to help her out with her writing assignment without being asked to.

I would recommend the book Nothing Ever Happens on 90th Street for the ages 4 - 11 because even thought it is a picture book, this story does teach life lessons... and everyone needs a good picture book from time to time! Also if you like stories about everyday problems that can be solved with a creative solution then this a good book for you. Overall I would say that the theme of this story is that you should never lose hope in your imagination or in the people around you!
