EllRay Jakes is a Rock Star!
Everyone has something to brag about in EllRay's third-grade class. Corey's on the swim team, Kevin is super tall, Jared's dad has an ATV (with flames!). But what about EllRay? He isn't about to gloat about how his geologist dad collects rocks. Boring! Or is it? The crystals in his dad's office are really cool looking. And if EllRay just "borrows" them to show his classmates, he knows they be impressed. He'll be a rock star-literally! And his dad will never have to know. It's a fail-safe plan . . . until everything doesn't go according to plan.
A Scholastic Book Club selection
"The protagonist's voice is humorous, and the charming cartoon illustrations make this beginning chapter book approachable for reluctant readers."
Librarian Review
"As in the previous book, the dialogue, setting and plot are accessible and realistic. Young readers can identify with EllRay, who is neither a bad seed nor a goody-two-shoes; he and his sense of humor are just right. A welcome addition to the tales from Oak Glen Primary School."
