When Nicholas and his chums are around, even an ordinary day at school can be a hilarious misadventure! There’s Geoffrey- (“….his dad is very rich and buys him all the toys he wants.”) and Cuthbert.- (“…who is top of the class and teacher’s pet,…only he wears glasses so we can’t pound him as much as we’d like to.”)You’ll meet Alec- “….who is always eating…”) and Eddie- (“….who is a very strong boy and usually he prefers punching people’s noses…”). And don’t forget Rufus- (“…whose dad is a policeman…..”). Join the gang as they sabotage the school picture, fail to impress the school inspector, and rehearse for a class play that the Principal will never see. No matter what they’re up to, Nicholas and his friends will keep you laughing from one end of the book to the other. Which chapter will be your favorite? (New Hampshire Great Stone Face 2007) |
