Al Capone Does My Shirts


Al Capone Does My Shirts is a great book! It has action, suspense, and drama in the same book. It is about a twelve-year-old-boy named Moose who lives with some of the most popular convicts of 1935 like
Roy Gardener, Machine Gun Kelly,and Al Capone. If you haven't guessed yet, Moose lives on Alcatraz Island off the coast of San Francisco. How he got on this island is because of his father who is a electrician on the island. When he comes to the island, all of the kids on Alcatraz are impressed with a girl named Piper, who comes up with a lot of schemes. Moose has a sister named Natalie who has a disability. Moose's parents want him to watch his sister while his dad works and his mom teaches piano lessons. His sister got suspended from her school and Moose has to help with her until she is able to go to school again. Moose would rather play baseball than watch his sister.
Will he watch her or let her loose?
