Stepping off the school bus each morning, looking forward to a day filled with nothing but play, leads to creative minds wandering toward devious ways. One student, Bully Jake (who forever clamors for attention), loves trapping timid Grace in no-win situations.\u003cbr\u003eSchool day after school day, twenty-nine cocky chicks [In this story, chicks are both male and female.] manipulate their wimpy teacher, Mr. Cock-ROOSTER [He is also the school principal.] into sending them outside to play. The drill is simple. Create a rowdy-ruckus roar, and Mr. Cock-Rooster will send us out the door.\u003cbr\u003eBut oh, their non-learning endeavors make Mr. Boar (the fifth-grade teacher next door) angry to his core.\u003cbr\u003eAll year, not a smidgen of schoolwork they do as day after day, they play baseball out under the sun. But one spring day, much more lies at stake than either side (the boys against the girls) winning, as proven by one cocky chick NOT grinning.\u003cbr\u003eBesides being fun reading, this rhyming parody \u003cb\u003epromotes diversity, teaches valuable life lessons, and emphasizes the importance of education.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mary Korte\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0998313203\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780998313207\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Havet Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/18\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.64lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.44d","brand":"Mary Korte","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48871631061247,"sku":"9780998313207","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/bully-jake-and-graces-fate-mary-korte-9780998313207","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
