    The New Kid: The Carver Chronicles, Book Five ... Karen English
  

*by E***N on Reviewed in the United States on December 3, 2017*

I love the Carver Chronicles and have read all 4 with pleasure. This has 3rd grader Gavin, the once new kid in town in book one, meeting the newest kid in town. The new kid tells  some big stories to fit in. What is Gavin and his friends t make of when his bike is stolen and then then the new kid shows up with a bike newly spray painted orange that looks like the dame model as Gavin's?
  
Dog Days (The Carver Chronicles Book 1)







  
  
     It's tough being the new kid at Carver Elementary. Gavin had lots of friends at his old school, but the kids here don't even know that he's pretty good at skateboarding, or how awesome he is at soccer. And when his classmate Richard comes over and the boys end up in trouble, not only does Gavin risk losing his one new friend, he has to take care of his great aunt Myrtle's horrible little dog as punishment.  To make matters worse, Gavin seems to have attracted the attention of the school bully. Will he be able to avoid getting pounded at the skate park? And how is he ever going to prove he's cool with a yappy little Pomeranian wearing a pink bow at his side?
  
Skateboard Party (The Carver Chronicles)







  
  
     Richard can’t wait to show off his flat-ground Ollies at a friend’s birthday party at the skate park, but a note home from his teacher threatens to ruin his plans. He really meant to finish his assignment on howler monkeys, but he just got . . . distracted. If only he could focus on his schoolwork, he wouldn’t get into this kind of trouble! Can Richard manage to put off getting the note signed (and facing the consequences) until after the party, or will the deception make things even worse?  Nikki and Deja fans and their male peers are sure to recognize themselves and their classmates in this humorous school story.
  
Don't Feed the Geckos! (The Carver Chronicles)







  
  
     arlos isn’t sure how he feels about the news that his cousin Bernardo will be joining his class at Carver Elementary. But when Bernardo comes to live with him temporarily, taking over Carlos’s top bunk, his spot on the school soccer team, and even his Papi’s attention, Carlos knows he isn’t happy. Worse, Bernardo starts messing with Carlos’s pet geckos! Carlos tries to see past his cousin’s annoying ways, but Bernardo sure doesn’t make it easy. Will Carlos—and his geckos—survive Bernardo's visit? Can he keep the peace for his family’s sake?  Emerging and newly independent readers are sure to recognize themselves in this humorous school and family story.
  
Trouble Next Door: The Carver Chronicles, Book Four







  
  
     In the fourth book in the Carver Chronicles series, third grader Calvin is dealing with his next door neighbors moving away—and the school bully moving in. Meanwhile, competition at the school science fair is heating up, and Calvin must decide what to do when his data doesn't prove his theory. This lively installment in a chapter book series about a diverse group of elementary schoolers by Coretta Scott King Honoree Karen English offers spot-on storytelling, relatable characters and situations, and plenty of action.

    Cool Kids!
  

*by L***G on Reviewed in the United States on January 19, 2018*

As my first from The Carver Chronicles series of chapter books for young readers, The New Kid has inspired me to read them all! The story's really quite simple—a few days in the lives of [George Washington] Carver elementary school friends and their families, along with too quick perceptions or misperceptions (judgments?) about objects and happenings from both kids and grownups. Bicycles are the central subject of confusion and concern—how apt is that, in a world full of urban small boys?New kid in the classroom Khufu is sufficiently different from and very much more studious than the other kids to puzzle them; even the teacher doesn't seem to quite understand everything about Khufu. Without including a spoiler in my review I'll mention several kids and a grownup parent both make similar mistakes that get amicably resolved; by the end of the book, even the new kid finds a comfortable place in his third grade class in his new school. Some very well done black and white illustrations by Laura Freeman enhance this book.
