Mic Drop Magic: Rap Kid Rocks the Classroom!
As both a teacher and a children’s author, I absolutely loved Rap Kid! I introduced my Year 6 class to MC Grammar on World Book Day after watching one of his brilliant book-themed raps. They were instantly hooked—so much so that they were inspired to write their own raps afterwards! That kind of creative spark is gold in the classroom.
The story follows Z—short for ZERO, the number of words he speaks at school. Why? Because every time he opens his mouth, it comes out in rhyme. Every. Single. Time. But everything changes when the Royal Rap Rumble comes to town, and with the help of his legendary English teacher Mr G, his beatboxing best friend SFX, and a full hip-hop makeover, Z transforms into RAP KID.
Can he conquer his fears and claim the golden mic? This uplifting, funny, and modern tale is packed with energy, heart, and big beats. It’s not only relatable and fun for older children, but it also tackles deeper themes like mental health, kindness, and self-belief in a way that’s accessible and meaningful.
As a children’s author myself, I’ve followed MC Grammar on social media for a while and love how he brings stories to life through rhyme and rhythm. His passion for books is contagious, and Rap Kid is a perfect example of how he bridges the gap between literacy and music.
To quote my class: “It’s SICK!” And honestly, I couldn’t agree more.

2,5 opzich een leuk boek wat veel interactie heeft met kinderen! (zelfs in de vorm van doe opdrachten)ik kan mezelf voorstellen dat dit als kind ontsettend leuk is om te lezen! boodschap van voor jezelf op komen en jezelf zijn komt wel erg naar voren. als groot MC Grammar fan wilde ik dit boek heel graag lezen. Verder weinig diepgang in karakters en verhaal gewoon leuk!

We love MC Grammar in my class and I’ve been looking forward to reading his Adventures of Rap Kid for a while.
Z only speaks in rhyme. The Royal Rap Rumble is coming to town and Z and SFX, helped by Mr G - English teacher extraordinaire, are going to take on the challenge.
The book is interactive throughout, talking directly to the reader with lots of things to think about and complete along the way. My kids will definitely enjoy reading it and see a lot of similarities with Z and themselves I think.
Thanks NetGalley for the ARC.

I think I might be a tad too old for this. I found it hard to get into the book but I have a feeling that my students, its target readers, will love this one and find it fun to do the rapping. It might probably better if I read it out loud and God forbids rap with them as we read. Reading it alone after teaching kind of takes the fun out of it.

I am crazy about MC Grammar on Instagram and excited to get his book for my grandkids. It's a perfect middle school read. There are interactive elements, a glossary of terms, and is funny and warm-hearted. You really can't go wrong with a kids book whose message is "READ, READ and then READ SOME MORE.
