school theatrical production of A Christmas Carol, the boy who
plays Scrooge is extra nervous because his very busy father is in
the audience. However, it's likely his father won't stay for the
duration, due to business. As always. Will the classic story's
message of Christmas cheer and family love reach his father's
distracted heart? as well as the hilarious story retelling, there
is also some extra pages at the back of the book containing
recipes, games, and other holiday fun.
Fans of Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Wayside School will love this
first book in a new, off-the-wall middle grade series about two
boys--one with the heart of a lion and the test scores of a baked
potato, the other a shy boy genius in a bunny suit--finding their
strengths and true friendship.Sixth-grader Alley Katz is innocently
trying to help a bunch of kindergarteners when the burrito hits the
fan. Literally. A burrito. A ceiling fan. A hail of beans. Now he
has to get an A on his science test or he'll be transferred to the
dreaded Steggles Academy. An A seems impossible! Alley is kind,
intrepid, and well-liked, but for some reason he doesn't get graded
on any of that. So the principal assigns a peer mentor to help:
Rex, a fourth-grade genius who wears a bunny suit. Alley is totally
in favor of both bunnies and fourth graders, but he doesn't need
Rex. He has his own foolproof plan to ace the test. Still, Rex is
determined to fulfill his duty as Alley's mentor--and he may need
some help of his own. One boy needs to stay in school, the other
needs to get through it. Can this odd couple save the day--and each
other?
