Horrible Harry's Secret
Kindergarten-Grade 2-- Horrible Harry falls in love with Song Lee when she brings her water frog to the second-grade classroom. From Harry's best friend Doug's point of view, the love notes, shy glances, and a red foil gift are just too much. When Harry stops talking, all his friends try to find out what he is hiding. The truth is that he lost two of his front teeth, which were his pride and joy. Of course, new ones are coming in and thus ends a very superficial story with little plot, characterization, or style. Events like these take place in thousands of classrooms each year. The redeeming value here is that second graders can read this to themselves or to each other and then write their own stories, which will likely be every bit as good as this one. --Pamela K.
