Summary: Bridge to a new adventure on earth?
Comment: I bought the paperback edition in late July 1985 and,beleieve it or not,I have read it more than a hundred times over and over again.It's an astounding story, many clues are given while you read the book on how E.T. can solve his problems. The keen reader can easily predict the outcome of the plot.The way the author connects the two realities, one on the Green planet , the other on Earth is nicely blended through the introduction of the telepathic beam, naturally off course, 'cause et's a little mixed up.This gives way to many funny situations. The book can be read at many levels; Et's worried about elliot becoming grown up.According to et's point of view, people on earth grew up to become violent so his mission now is to save his friend.This is a great message of peace. I think the book is not indicated for children too young, to which I advise reading the illustrated storybook instead.To conclude I always ask myself why in these years Kotzwinkle didn't write a sequel to this book due to its open ending.In an interview, spielberg said that his movie ET is a "gem the way it is" so a sequel was not necessary 'cause it would currupt its magic.I think a new adventure for ET would be great indeed!!

Summary: Great Sequel! Should be a movie.
Comment: This novel is a joy to read. It leaves off where the movie ended, starting with E. T. watching the Earth slowly disappear out of the porthole of his spaceship. Kotzwinkle has a wonderful imagination and provides a heartwarming tale about growing up, memories, love, friendship, and best of all - adventure. This is a great read. It should be made into a movie. I give it a 5!
