In Book 2, Knucklehead Fred and the Principal's Challenge - we return to see that Fred has slid into some bad behavior in school. He does not want to sit inside and do worksheets. He wants to be outside. Our favorite part of this book can be found on page 8. "He could not stand the indoors, the classroom was just no fun. He'd much rather be outside where he was free to fart, scream and run." The boys laughed so hard at this page. (Boy humor). They laughed and howled over it. Once the collected themselves, my 9 year old looked at me and said "He is not wrong though" That started the laughing again.
Since Fred does not like to be inside, he refuses to come inside when recess is over. This leads to him being sent to the principal office. The principal makes him a deal. If he can behave the rest of the week, he will get a surprise. Surprisingly, Fred is able to get his act together. He even surprises himself. The surprise will remain a surprise, so that you can read the book for your self.

I received a copy of this book through the Silver Dagger Blogging program, all thoughts are my own.

Lessons and Rewards

I love the illustrations in the Knucklehead Free books. The lessons and rewards in this book are written in an easy to follow prose. I love that the big reward involves gardening. A good tool to discuss appropriate behaviors.
