1)    My book schooled is a very low comedy and comedy of manners some people reading this book might get offended in some parts and do not like the language in this book this book would not be for most people because its low comedy is because when Kap gets put into public school he is made fun of because he is a vegetarian Buddhist, he dresses like he is in the 1960’s, that he does tai-chi on his front lawn ever day after school, is the schools biggest nerd, and His only friend in the whole school was the ex-biggest nerd of the school Hugh. It is comedy of manners because when rain falls out of a plum tree and break her mom’s hip and gets put into public school and everyone makes fun of her because she is a hippy and will have no friends and at her she is made fun of because her mom is loser. These types of humor are more towards teenagers and above


2) This book has its moments in being funny but there is also some moments when it gets dull and boring like the beginning and the end, it takes a while for schooled to get to his climax but the comedy in this book I find it funny but other people won’t because it is slapstick comedy and comedy of manners some other people will not find it funny and this book might not be for them.  There is some parts of where it has some sexual- innuendo but there is not too much of that but people might get offended in some parts of the book because there is some parts of racism and racial slurs. Some groups would like this book a lot if they enjoy slapstick or low comedy and some other groups will not find this book funny or they won’t get the humor choices in this book. This book is not for all ages mostly pointed to the view of a tween or a teen ager because if it was my little 9 year old cousin he would not understand the choice of humor in this book.
