Because of Mr. Terupt - Review

One day I was browsing around one of my favorite local bookstore when I came across this book called Because of Mr. Terupt. I read the back and thought it was very interesting because it was about a 5th grade class and I am going into 5th grade. So I decided to get it.

This book is about a teacher named Mr. Terupt. Only Mr. Terupt seems to know how to deal with all the kids in his new class. There are seven kids in the the class that this book is about. There is the new girl, the bully, the troublemaker, and the smart guy. Also there is a girl who doesn't know how to stand up for herself, the shy girl, and then the boy who hates school. Together, they are a lot for any teacher to deal with.

What I really like about this book is that it is divided differently than a normal chapter book. Each section is a month and each of the 7 kids tells about the month in their own voice. It made the book easy to read.

I would give it a 10 out of 10.

There is another book with the same characters. It's called Mr. Terupt Falls Again. I am reading it now.
