We’re back! It’s a new year for Brown Bag Book Club for kids in grades 3 to 5. Bring food in a brown bag and be ready for talking! Drinks and treats will be served, so get your book and join us! Books can be picked up in the Children’s Room. This month we’re reading Jake Drake, Class Clown by Andrew Clements. Don’t forget to register.
Knock, knock. Who’s there? Jake. Jake who? Jake Drake, Class Clown.
Miss Bruce is the new student teacher in second grade, and she never smiles. Never. But when Jake cracks up the class during a spelling bee, he sees the tiniest hint of a smile at the corner of her mouth. Suddenly, Jake has a new mission in life: to be so funny that even Miss Bruce will laugh!
But then things get out of hand, and Jake finds himself in big trouble. Has Jake discovered — too late — that not everybody loves a clown?
