review 1: This book is called The Classroom: The Epic Documentary of a Not Yet Epic Kid by Robin Mellom. The genre of the book is realistic fiction and comedy. Trevor Jones is a average new clueless 7th grader. His best friend Libby wants their friendship to be broken up and try to find new people. Trevor is worried he want meet expectations that Libby wants like new friends and a date to the school dance by the end of the day. Trevor had one problem he wanted to ask the girl to the dance but that meant that he had to get detention. So he tried and tried had no luck but he did ask her. My favorite character would be the Cory Long because of the way Robin Mellom describes him the way he bullies his laugh they way he brushes his hair. The details are so fine and specific on him. In... more a way I could relate to Trevor because his mom would tell him make friends and don't worry about anything. We also tried to find our classes and not get in trouble. My favorite part in the sorry would be when Trevor got on to the bus and the 8th graders didn't let him sit down. But the bus driver had to do something about it. This shows a resemblance of bulling in real life. That is one of the reasons I chose realistic fiction as one of my genres. I would change nothing because it is already unchangeable. I would recommend this book to who like humor and comedy. I chose five starts because if the details and the plot and the way I could relate to it.
review 2: Jumping on the Wimpy Kid and Origami Yoda bandwagons, this book will probably appeal to fans of those series but did very little for me. The documentary premise doesn't really work and is somewhat confusing, the characters are caricatures and the plot is pretty stupid. Not my cup of tea at all, but Robbie enjoyed it. Just found out that this is the first in a series - why doesn't that surprise me. less
