Bought this for my 8 year old grandson when I went to visit him. He loved the book. He laughed often and was always willing to share the reading with me.

A MUST BUY!

For years I have been trying to persuade my 12 year old son to read and finally here is a book that he read off in 2 days...... yes in 2 days...and he does not want me to trade it in... he wants it for his library. He even showed me some words that he had in his vocabulary lessons at school in the book. EXCELLENT especially for those of us who have kids who don't like reading.

My son can't stop reading and laughing!

My son loved the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series and I was desperate to find another book that he enjoyed reading as much. Well, this is the book. I think he likes it better than the Wimpy Kid series. He carries it with him wherever he goes and asks to stay up and read!! I LOVE this book! To any parent who wants to help their child learn to love reading, this is a good choice. I hope there are more.....

HILARIOUS!!!

The book is about Nate, a kid who thinks he is destined for greatness. He thinks that today, he will surpass all others. A fortune cookie tells him so. He tries to set various records, but keeps getting detention slips instead. When school is over and he gives the detention slips to the detention supervisor, she says that kids rarely get four but he got detention slips from all the teachers and he set a record for the most detention slips. If you like funny books, you won't want to miss this one!Big Nate: In a Class by Himself

wimpy kid fans must read!

Big Nate's day at school isn't turning out so great. That all changes when he opens a fortune cookie with the message "Today you will surpass all others," he feels like his life is about to turn around! As his day goes on it turn out to be just the opposite! The author has done a great job of turning a comic strip into a full length novel. Fans of The Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Captain Underpants will enjoy this unique novel.
