Clementine by Sara Pennypacker is a hilarious chapter book for second to fourth graders. Clementine is a third grade girl who is not having so good of a week. She has cutting off hair incidents, differences in perception with her teachers and principal when they think she is not paying attention, when really she is paying extra attention to everything. There is the battle of the Great Pigeon War. Not to mention best friends, little brothers who should be named Lima Bean, and ceiling snakes. Clementine is hilarious!
