Too Cool for This School
Juvenile fiction
Lane, protagonist of Kristen Tracy's Too Cool For this School
seemingly has it made in the shade. She's been chosen 6th grade
captain, a role with plenty of perks and popularity. What could
possibly go wrong?
Try a visiting cousin from Alaska. Mint does not seem to know a
thing about how to behave and dress in middle school. Amazingly,
though, her individualism and confidence make her popular, rather than
rejected. The kids who hover around her include the boys Lane and
best friend Ava have crushes on.
Lane wants nothing more than for Mint to go back where she
belongs. But when Ava comes up with a plan for revenge she has a very
difficult decision to make.
Middle school can be a really challenging time with changing
hormones, increased academic responsibilities, and a potentially much
more dramatic social scene. Whether looking ahead with excitement,
trepidation, or a mixture of both, soon to be primary school graduates
will really enjoy Too Cool For this School.
On a personal note, tomorrow morning when I volunteer at the library
Louise will be doing a messy art project and I will be assisting.
That should be fun.
A great big shout out goes out to our munchkin clients who hopefully
have a wonderful time!
