Book Review: The Top Ten Way to Ruin the First Day of 5th Grade


The Top Ten Ways to Ruin the First Day of 5th grade
by Erin B.

 The book, The Top Ten Ways to Ruin the First Day of 5th grade is about a boy named Anthony, more commonly known as Tony Baloney. He seeks attention and popularity. His number one goal in life is to be on The Late Show. In his school he starts doing stupid stunts to get attention and have a reason to write to David Letterman. Just a guess, TB probably doesn’t know getting ground for a year is worse than not being on The Late Show.
  This book is an interesting book. I have a very literary sense of humor. This book probably would appeal to someone with more of a straight forth sense of humor. Even though it didn’t appeal to me humor wise it had some interesting conflict. This book is written from a boys’ point of view. A lot of the actions in the book girls wouldn’t get. I also think this book is not good for little kids. In the book some of the humor is a little more `grown-up’ humor. I probably would recommend this book to boys who know the difference between fiction and real life, at least a little. They probably should know not to try these stunts themselves. So all in all I recommend this book to boys at least nine years of age and who know the difference between fiction and real life.
