Book Description

8 and up3 and upHank Zipzer
When Ms. Adolf hurts her back in a tango contest and goes on longterm leave, Mr. Rock (the music teacher) is called in as the sub. Hank is psyched . . . until Mr. Rock suggests that Hank attend an after-school reading program, which means he?ll miss tae kwon do. But when Hank gets a crush on a girl in the reading program, and when Mr. Rock says that instead of writing his autobiography (a class assignment), Hank can present his life in scrapbook form, well . . . life?s looking good. Then Hank finds out that his crush is actually the cousin of his nemesis, McKelty!

Readers will love Hank?s newest adventure, plus they will adore reading Hank?s scrapbook, which includes black-and-white photos of his school and neighborhood, newspaper clippings, memorabilia, and more!

5.0 out of 5 stars Best in the Series, February 20, 2010
This review is from: Life of Me, The #14: Enter at Your Own Risk (Hank Zipzer) (Paperback)
Out of the 16 books available in the Zipzer series, this is now my favourite for a few reasons. First, Hank really begins to accept his learning disability; he also chooses to seek extra help for it. Now true, there is a female interest that draws him to that option but when a young person chooses reading gym over Tae Kwon Do, you know something serious is up. Hank has his first crush and Zoe is in the reading gym also. Hank also tries to keep this change in after-school activities a secret from his dad. But best of all Hank learns how to describe his life with his learning challenges and how it feels to live and struggle with them day in and day out. In learning to admit he has a problem and really working on it, Hank learns how to communicate his struggles and feelings that have been pent up for years.

What is remarkable about this book, and the series as a whole, is the ability by the authors to capture the essence of struggling with a learning disability. I was diagnosed in grade 2 because of a very persistent teacher, but many people are now being diagnosed in college, university and even in the workforce. I know many people who were not diagnosed in school and feel the way Hank does, but they did not know why. These books, even though written for children, are excellent for anyone struggling with learning disabilities, no matter their age. For they will help them see it is not just them and in Hank will see a mirror of some of their own experiences. These books are wonderfully written and are also fun to read. I highly recommend them.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Life of Me, The #14: Enter at Your Own Risk (Hank Zipzer) (Paperback)
Hank Zipzer is the class clown-- whenever he's around, there's always trouble. This character is funny, and the Hank Zipzer books always end on a good note. (Review written by 7th grade student, Kayla)
