Popular author Gordon Korman pens a funny fish-out-of-water tale that even the most reluctant reader will find impossible to resist. Capricorn Anderson has spent his entire life on a farm with his hippie grandmother. After an accident puts Grandma in the hospital, Cap is forced to attend Claverage Middle School and live with his guidance counselor. The tradition at Claverage is for students to nominate the biggest nerd for class president, and Cap is the obvious choice. But with his odd ways and positive outlook, Cap just might turn the joke upside down by becoming the best class president ever.©2007 Gordon Korman (P)2007 Recorded Books, LLC

A kids book I enjoyed

My 6th grader had to read this for her summer assignment. We decided to "read" it together in the car as well as in print. This was a good story, and started many family conversations about bullying.

Great Book, Cool Concept!

I like this book. The concept of someone growing up outside of society and then rejoining is interesting. However, there is no pause between one chapter ending and the next one starting. I feel like that is a odd thing to say, but it really does throw you off a little.

nothing

I disliked how the chapter ended so quickly so the words don't have time to finish

Amazing

Reading this book with my son for his 6th grade book report.. Just a great story, evolution of the characters, good vs. bad, facing adversity, happy ending story.

Pretty good!

I very much enjoyed this book, it was a fun read! I really liked the reader for the Capricorn Anderson chapters! There were a couple parts where it got slightly dry, but overall, great book!

OMG

This is the best book I have ever read and I never even wanted to stop I recommend this book to anyone who loves family books. :3

Loved it!

Great concept! Accurate portrayal of teens and their peers. Loved the idea of introducing someone to that middle school environment who was completely unfamiliar with that setting. Great performance.

A Absolute Gordon Korman gem!!!!!

I couldn’t help but fall in love with all the characters, even the bullies and mean ones, because they were all so well touched and humbling. “Schooled” is a gem filled with joy, heartwarming relationships, and the power of love and kindness! Cap, Rain, Sophie, Naomi, Hugh, and many more are an inspiring group of underdogs that face the challenges that life has brought and still will bring by sticking together through thick and thin, plus having each other’s backs the entire story! Great plot and characters. Nothing can beat with that! DEFINITELY RECOMMENDED!(:

Awesome!

A full cast gives a great performance. I enjoyed the journey Capricorn goes through to learn about the modern world and the ups and downs of middle school.

They is such joy in knowing people who can't get their feathers ruffled.

Omg love it

I love cap gave Sophie the bracelet. I recommend it to everyone. I give it five stars it was so good. But the sad part was when they sold garland. But the happy part is when cap goes back to c average school and see all his eleven hundred friends. And I am 10 years old and I think it is wonderful to read. READ THIS BOOK! And if you see this Gordon Korman please write back. And I want everyone to read it and give it a 5 stars cause it is great - Ava
