While some stories may have the females squirming in discomfort they will also have the boys engaged, giggling and wanting more. The stories a written in the point of view of a 10-14 yr old Australian which makes perfect ties to geography and literacy.

The students can then create a short narrative incorporating these new words as if they were an Australian student. best suited to grades 4 and up. Quirky tales for Paul Jennings. These books got me through a few of my awkward years I tell you. Even kids in these stories is the underdog or the want you want to cheer for. There is often twists and turns in every story and he also has a way with coming up with a killer ending. For 7 to 13 year olds.
