Schooled

De: Gordon Korman

Narrado por: Andy Paris, Steven Boyer, Helena Prezio, Nick Landrum, Suzanne Toren, Karen Zippler, James Yaegashi

In this bestselling fish-out-of-water classic, a homeschooled kid must learn how to fit in at his new public school when he's elected to be class president as a prank.

Capricorn Anderson (Cap for short) has never watched a television show. He’s never tasted pizza. He’s never heard of a wedgie. And he has never, even in his wildest dreams, thought he’d live anywhere but the Garland Farm commune with his hippie grandmother and homeschool instructor, Rain.

But all this changes when Rain is stuck in the hospital and Cap is sent to Claverage Middle School (dubbed C Average by the kids). Cap doesn't exactly fit in at school, with his long, ungroomed hair and hemp clothes; in fact, he's the biggest nerd around. But when he’s elected eighth grade president as a joke, Cap is more puzzled than ever, and soon the joke grows into something more. Will Cap be the greatest president in the history of C Average or the biggest punch line?

Rife with Gordon Korman’s signature humor, Schooled is a heartwarming story about friendship, kindness, and finding your place—which may not always be where you think it is.

"Korman’s novel … is his usual smart, funny, slightly skewed realism. Tweens will definitely identify."—Kirkus Reviews

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
