Great Book!
My son loves this book. We are African-American and I think it's important to buy him books with characters that look like him. He's in the third grade and loves reading!

Ages 7 to 9
3rd grader Richard reminds me of me at that age. Life is so full of new and different things that he finds it hard to complete any one thing before another thing crops up to capture his interest. What's a guy to do when crunch time comes and he has to choose between doing what he wants and doing what his parents want from him. He wants to do what is right but this young mind can't stay focused. The cover captured my eye while the story spoke to me. My 7 year old loved the story and we had a nice book club discussion around the dinner table with the other family members. Don't miss Dog Days: The Carver Chronicles, Book One by the same author & illustrator.

Two weeks that change a boy's life for the better
"Skateboard Party: The Carver Chronicles, Book Two" finds Richard, a third-grader who's in trouble with his teacher for not doing his share on a group assignment. Richard would rather practice skateboarding tricks, play video games, or hang out with his friends than do schoolwork. He means well and is obviously quite smart, he just has problems getting motivated. Richard's problems compound when he avoids showing his parents a note from his teacher. Will he be able to go to his big brother's friend's skateboard party to show off his new skateboarding tricks? Written in the third person and in the present tense, "Skateboard Party" is easy to follow for beginning readers, yet offers complexities which reward careful reading. If you have someone who can relate to Richard, this might be a good book to share with him or her.
