Brendan Buckley is starting 6th grade. He looks at life with the keen eyes of a scientist. He loves rock crystals, science experiments and his pet anoles, Einstein. Brendan keeps a “log” because diaries are for girls. He tracks his scientific findings and his feelings about the social world of junior high.

Add to the general mayhem the fact that his parents are trying to adopt a baby, and Brendan's involvement in Tae Kwan Do, and this is one busy middle grade story. The addition of the equally science obsessed Michelle, and Brendan's reluctance to hang out with...more

Some people never ask questions. Maybe they're afraid they'll look dumb, or maybe they don't think of things to ask. But not me. It's like my brain is one big bowl of Rice Krispies and all my questions are the milk. It's a constant snap, crackle, and pop up there.
Synopsis:
Brendan Buckley is back, and he's headed for middle school! He has all-new questions to write down and ponder, from whether he can train his new pet anole to anticipate his morning feeding to whether he can pass his next Tae Kw...more

This is a great contemporary realistic fictional ebook. A four star read for curious Intermediate (I) readers. Young readers will be drawn to the admirable Brendan Buckley. Brendan is starting his first year in middle school. I like that it is a multi-cultural story and it is a perfect fit for all young readers in middle school. It is an all around greta book that kids can relate too. Family, school and best friend drama, all tied into one! eBook*
