Do you like books by Andrew Clements?  If you do, you would like this book.  It’s called The Landry News.  A little about this book is that the main characters are Cara and Mr. Larson.  But Mr. Larson the teacher doesn’t even teach the class!  All he does is drink coffee and read the newspaper.  What do you think the kids will do?  Will Mr. Larson change?  But then one day something was written in a paper called The Landry News.  What will happen?  To find out, read this book.

~Brittney, Fourth Grader~

If you like Frindle or Lunch Money, you will like this book.  The Landry News is a book by Andrew Clements.  It has 138 pages and is very interesting.  This book is about a girl named Cara Landry.  She started her own newspaper, and she gets in trouble.  The Landry News has challenging words.  The Landry News has many exciting parts too.  I would recommend this book to anyone.
