Do you know the movie, Stand by Me? This book is the original of it. This book was written by Stephen King, and first published in 1982.
This story is about the summer journey of four boys, Gordie, Chris, Teddy, and Vern. One day, Vern eavesdrops that there is a dead body in the forest. He says to his friends, Gordie, Chris, and Teddy, " You guys want to go and see a dead body?" They decide to go to look for it. As they face the dangers on their way, what do they learn???
I think the themes of this story are the importance of friends and American gap-widening society. I was impressed the scene, Gordie and Chris talk about their worry. I felt it was hard to get out of gap-widening society. If you have interest in this book, please read it!!!
