President of the Whole Sixth Grade

By: Sherri Winston

Narrated by: Sienna Jeffries

In this follow-up to President of the Whole Fifth Grade, Brianna navigates her toughest challenge yet: middle school!

Brianna Justice is determined to raise enough money for the big class trip to Washington, D.C., but she's up against a lot: classmates who all pretend to be something they're not, a new nemesis determined to run her out of office, and the sinking feeling she's about to lose her two best friends for good. But just when she begins to lose hope, she comes to realize that sometimes surprises can turn out even better than the best-laid plans.

Sherri Winston tells a story brimming with humor and heart as Brianna navigates the ins and outs of middle school, discovering that inspiration can come when you least expect it.

Critic reviews

Praise for President of the Whole Sixth Grade:

"Winston's humorous prose captures the spirited preteen voice of an honors student with sass, quick wit, and great ideas... A whip-smart, funny, and fast-paced outing equally suited to returning fans and readers who are just meeting Brianna for the first time."—Kirkus Reviews

"Brianna's determination and follow-through make her a great role model, but the true value here is the very real depiction of the ebb and flow of middle-school friendships and the difficulties that come with growing up. An important resource for anyone who's ever been in Brianna's shoes."—Booklist

Praise for Sherri Winston's President of the Whole Fifth Grade:
- "A sweet confection for middle grade readers." - Booklist

Great, relatable book that's a joy to listen to!

My kids began listening to this book and I quickly got hooked too! The story itself is really sweet, funny, and strong. The main character is a 6th grade girl that's a real sharp go-getter; she discusses the many adventures of her first semester in 6th grade. She's surrounded by loving, supportive, positive adult characters throughout the book. The main character shows her good and bad sides and how she learned from her mistakes. (And the performer was a great compliment to the storyline!) I'd recommend this book to any kid/YA!!

Gets a high five from my 10 year old!

Delightful and relaxing

It is so easy to get lost in the gritty and deep books on here that you forget that this platform can take you to highs and lows with tales of 6th grade. The narration embodied the characters and the spiraling story. I listened joyfully with my daughter as a little black girl took center stage in a story all too common, even with some uncommon twists.
