Fourth grader Hank Zipzer finds himself in trouble the very first day of school with both his crabby teacher Ms. Adolf and the principal. Hank has difficulty writing and is required to write a five paragraph easy and is expected to share it with the class first. Hank decides to "perform" his story rather than write it, taking the "show, don't tell" concept way to far as disaster strikes.
This series is a great 3rd-4th grade bunch of stories. Hank has learning differences which will make many students feel more comfortable with their own learning styles. It is as likable as the My Weird School series and can be a great next step for readers.
