The Boys at the Read to Achieve Club Are Awesome!

Hello, everyone in the blogoverse! The Iron Guy, that truly MANLY MAN, is always on the lookout for guys who love reading. Imagine how happy he was when he came in contact recently with a whole group of rocking and reading boys in the Read to Achieve club at Eastover Elementary School in Charlotte. They are lead by the terrific Mr. Merritt, who let me come over and talk about this blog. And when I was done, guess what--they handed me a bunch of reviews of their favorite books! Whooppee! The Iron Guy is always thrilled when boys tell me about their favorite reads and let me share them with all the other boys out there. So let me stop talking and let you see what these have guys read and liked.

By far, the very most favorite was Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Third Wheel by Jeff Kinney. Four of the twelve boys in the club wrote about it:


Jakobe C
My favorite book was The Third Wheel because I like when he was in his mom stomach it looks funny and it’s by Jeff Kinney and they had funny words. The Main Idea was about chicken pop’s and Greg was trying to impress this girl.
 
Hotboy
It is about a boy name Gregory Heffley and he wrote the diary in the movies and also he is in middle school. When he was a little Boy he didn’t  know what Hecla mean. When he met his brother brother Rodrick a few days after he was born he also figured out how to remove the batteries from the remote. When he was 4 or 5 years old his parents took him out of preschool to skip a grade to kindergarten and he write about when his mom pretty much let him watch whatever he want. That’s all I got bye!
