What you'll find below is a special edition of The Weekly Top 2 featuring the Mallett School Book review Contest! Right, but what are the three top releases out today you ask? Well, that would be the new Alex Rider book, Crocodile Tears, and two hot paperback releases, The Piano Teacher and Invictus. Okay, so onto the Book review Contest!  The kids were asked to persuade someone to read (or not read) a book they'd read. Great job kids! |

Clementine
By Pennypacker, Sara 2008-02 - Hyperion Books for Children 9780786838837 - Paperback See Other Formats List Price $4.99 - Your Price: $3.99 By Olivia Lockhart, Grade 3: (Our First Place Review!) I think that Sara Pennypacker is a good author that puts a lot of voice into her stories. I think she does a really good job of writing stories about an 8-year-old's point of view because she has experienced being 8. I think she may have been or acted like Clementine or it was a true story about her and something that happened when she was a kid. She might have spent a lot of time in the principal's office. I like the times Clementine went to the principal's office for not paying attention and squirming around during class time.
