Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Will has zero interest in running for class president...but his pesky little brother Steve has big plans in store for him!

The brothers from How Not to Babysit Your Brother and How Not to Start Third Grade are back and at it again! Third-grader Will couldn't care less about boring class elections. But when the incumbent, his friend Chelsea, proposes a Reading Buddies program that would require Will to hang out with the Kindergarteners (and therefore Steve), he makes an impulsive decision to run against her! Supportive little brother that he is, Steve takes full responsibility for managing his brother's campaign...and things quickly spiral out of control.

This is a great, light introduction to the campaign process. It gently teaches what it means to be a responsible politician, and even gets some election basics in the mix. A hilarious tool to kick off classroom units on elections!

Step 4 Readers use challenging vocabulary and short paragraphs to tell exciting stories. For newly independent readers who read simple sentences with confidence.

Grades 2-3.
