This book features Cara Landry whom is a student of Room 145 taught by Mr Karl Larson a teacher with nineteen years of experience.
Mr Larson has been voted as the best teacher for several years, 15 years ago but his performance has started to dwindle drastically.
However, a girl called Cara Landry decides to call out her teacher's philosophy of shoving newspapers on the students and expecting them to learn through them, via the editorial section of by her own newspaper 📰.
This article leads to a change in Mr Larson's behaviour. As the newspaper grows, a development leads to Mr Larson risking his job. Does he get to keep his job or not?
I LOVED this book even though I am out of the MAIN audience, but then again I still like to read books aimed at 8-12 year olds.
This is the first book I have read by Andrew Clements and I have loved it 😍 ❤️. I believe this book has a SUPER unique idea.
Rating: 5 STARS
Write any memories you have about newspapers in the comments below:
For me, I remember a newspaper called The Week. It was my childhood and I even had several pictures of me in the newspaper.
I also remember how fun it was to learn about newspapers in fifth grade ( ofc not NEARLY as fun as it was for Cara lol)
