Big Nate Strikes Again


Peirce, L. (2010). Big Nate Strikes Again. New York: Harper Collins Children’s Books. 

Nate is an adorable and ambitious boy with passions for excitement and sports.  He has a couple of best friends and together the boys harangue each other in good humor while going through typical school days filled with boring lectures, assignments, and stinky cafeteria food.  In this novel Nate is assigned a research project with the detestable Gina about Benjamin Franklin.  Nate accidently begins his research project and finds Benjamin Franklin to be a fascinating subject and with Nate’s creativity and enthusiasm he creates an awesome comic book.  However, Gina disagrees with the format and the two remain unresolved.  Read the book to find out what happens!  Nate is hilarious and readers are sure to enjoy the cartoons embedded in the text.  (Grades 2 and up).
