📖Recommend for Grades 6 and up📖
by Andrew Clements
It's the
first day of school and Alec has found himself in the principal's office for
reading in class instead of paying attention. There, the principal informs Alec
that summer school is in his future if he doesn't get his act together. When
Alec's brother reminds him about attending the extended day program this year,
Alec is excited. He thinks it means three uninterrupted hours of reading after
school instead of reading in class. But recreational reading in the extended
day program isn't an option, not unless Alec starts a club for it. To deter
people away, Alec calls his reading club The Loser's Club, but things don't
exactly go as Alec planned.
The
Losers Club is an enjoyable read with wonderful and relatable characters. There
is more to this story than just reading about kids reading. Alec also has to
deal with several dilemmas. From dealing with a bully named Kent (especially
since they both have a crush on Nina) and making sure his grades are high
enough to avoid the homework room. Whether you are a book lover like Alec or
not, you should give this book a try.
