The first grade narrator of this book has been lots of things: Hungry. Four years old. Crazy bored. Soaking wet. Pretty regular kid . . . until he makes a mistake so big that he s sure he will never be able to go back to Lakeview Elementary School. All readers, even those not in first grade, will find the narrator s feelings familiar, and discover that even though embarrassing things happen, they re usually not as bad as they seem. And sometimes they re even funny!
