Title: Kid Cool Arrives!
Description: Nothing has ever gone right in Stanley Brumburger’s eight years of life. Paint falls on his head at school, the bullies on the bus take his glasses, and he doesn't have any friends.Then Stanley's neighbor gives him a stone. A magic stone. And he becomes Kid Cool. Suddenly, the other kids like him! He's not having accidents or making silly mistakes. He even has the self-confidence to become the first third-grader to climb the rope to the top of the gym! Everything is perfect until Stanley starts working on a science project about rocks--and he drops his magic stone. The pile of hundreds of look-alike stones swallows it up. Can he still be Kid Cool without it? This early chapter book has numerous hyperlinks to extend the story, plus great pictures. Teacher resource materials also available.
