The Terrible Truth about Third Grade

The Terrible Truth About Third Grade is super! The main character is a girl named Battabe. Her real name is Jane. She makes up lies to make friends to. But she doesn't have any friends. So eventually none believes her lies. She doesn't do her homework. She even lies to her teacher to get out of trouble. But the teacher never believes her lies. She told the teacher she doesn't do the homework because she reads too much. So the homework was to make a book. The other kids didn't believe she wrote one. She read it in front of the class to prove it. Everyone liked it. A little girl named Susie made pictures to go with it. They showed the pictures to the teacher. I think you would like this book. And don't lie to make friends or get out of trouble. Just be your self!
