Class Clown by Johanna Hurwitz

4.0

I read this in Spanish to help improve my language skills. The title in Spanish is El Payaso de la Clase.

Lucas Cott is a third grader with some impulse control issues. He is smart, but often gets in trouble at school for disrupting the class. He is jealous of the star student, Cricket, who always gets the right answers. Eventually, Lucas and Cricket discover some common ground and Lucas learns how to use his talents to contribute rather than to disrupt.

Cute story and it only took me a month and a half to get through it in Spanish!
