Oggie Cooder
Your order will ship on or around the release date
Description
From the author of So B. It, a super charming middle-grade Napoleon Dynamite with heart — the tale of a very average boy who's put in his school's spotlight when his averageness appeals to a TV show.
Fourth-grader Oggie Cooder has a talent — he can charve better than anyone else in Truman Elementary School. (Charving, for the uninitiated, is the carving of a piece of cheese with one's teeth.) Oggie doesn't think this is anything special — but his whole school will soon be disagreeing with him. Because after he inadvertantly charves during a nationwide hunt for unusual talents, his charving puts him on the path to fame and forture. Suddenly, he's the star of the school . . . but he's not sure that he wants to shine that way.
This is Sarah Weeks at her best — funny, clever, and kid-friendly.
Standards:
RL.4.10. By the end of the year, read and comprehend literature, including stories, dramas, and poetry, in the grades 4–5 text complexity band proficiently, with scaffolding as needed at the high end of the range.
RELATED SUBJECTS: Friends and Friendship
