- Larger-than-life characters....Behind the music quest, sarcasm and pursuit of girls, however, lies a more complicated and often compelling story about family, grief and flawed coping mechanisms.---Kirkus * -Beaudoin is the Fred Astaire of comic writing, translating each sentence into a manic dance routine of half-invented jargon (-chewing the profunda-cud-) on his way to blessedly non-cloying coming-of-age glory.- --Booklist (starred review) -[Beaudoin] plays language like Hendrix plays a guitar.---BCCB -The author does a brilliant job getting into the head of a troubled teen and does not shy away from racy topics.---School Library Journal (starred review) " Larger-than-life characters....Behind the music quest, sarcasm and pursuit of girls, however, lies a more complicated and often compelling story about family, grief and flawed coping mechanisms."--Kirkus * "Beaudoin is the Fred Astaire of comic writing, translating each sentence into a manic dance routine of half-invented jargon ("chewing the profunda-cud") on his way to blessedly non-cloying coming-of-age glory." --Booklist (starred review) "[Beaudoin] plays language like Hendrix plays a guitar."--BCCB "The author does a brilliant job getting into the head of a troubled teen and does not shy away from racy topics."--School Library Journal (starred review)
Reseña del editor:

Teenager Ritchie Sudden has a lot to deal with. He's still getting used to his mom's girlfriend. He plays in a band called Celestial Embryo / Death By End-Stage Syphilis / Wise Young Fool. His sister died three years ago. Ritchie Sudden is in a detention center.

As Ritchie alternates between narrating his current life in a juvenile detention center, and the events that led him to that point, he tells a story that is in turns hilarious and heartbreaking. Wise Young Fool is getting ready to compete in Band Slam 2012 and Ritchie is growing to accept - and even love - his mother's girlfriend, but he can't forget what his sister told him a week before she was killed by a drunk driver...

Written with a razor-sharp voice, Wise Young Fool is a humorous yet authentic look into the life of a teen boy.
