This book is really clever. The book is dependent on the fun illustrations done by M. Sarah Klise. It's not a standard book. It's made up of letters, entries to the Gazette, and other documents. It's a light read and enjoyable. In a way, it reminded me of the Amelia Bedelia books when I was a kid.
Audience: 6th, maybe 7th grade, though they'd have wide appeal just based on the cleverness
Topics: spelling bee, standardized tests (BEES), honey bees, 7th graders, substitute teacher, competition, play on words, double meanings, puns, relationships, dating, school dances, misunderstandings, miscommunication, letter writing, advice, cheating
Mrs. Beckwith's rating: 4 of 5
