We Will Rock Our Classmates (Ryan T Higgins)

 


More surprises from Penelope! Great story for contrasts and contradictions! There are plenty of surprises along the way:

  • Feeling different than everyone else (everyone ALWAYS wants Penelope to be a dinosaur when they play....she never gets to pretend she's something else)
  • When they're playing dentists they scold Penelope for not flossing AND they find someone's backpack stuck in her teeth
  • Is nervous about performing (you would think a bring strong dinosaur would never feel nervous!)
  • Daddy Rex teaches Penelope about great things people in her family have accomplished and this helps buoy her up


Goodreads says:


Readers will twist and shout for this headbanging companion to the #1 New York Times best-selling We Don't Eat Our Classmates.

Penelope is a T. rex, and she's very good at it. She also likes to rock out on guitar! With the school talent show coming up, Penelope can't wait to perform for her classmates. But sharing who you are can be show-stoppingly scary, especially when it's not what people expect. Will Penelope get by with a little help from her friends?
