<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>From an award-winning author, another title in a chapter book series featuring African American and Latino boys that's full of kid-friendly charm and universal appeal <p/> De una premiada autora, una interesantísima serie de libros infantiles protagonizados por niños afroestadounidenses y latinos, llenos de esa magia que fascina a los niños y que tiene un encanto universal. <br> ​<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Calvin is sad that his friends next door are moving away, especially when he realizes that Harper, the biggest bully at Carver Elementary, is moving in! Meanwhile, competition at the school science fair is heating up, and Calvin must decide what to do when his data doesn't prove his theory. Can Calvin avoid trouble with Harper and still win the science fair? <p/> Calvin está triste porque sus amigos de la casa de al lado se mudan, en especial cuando se da cuenta de que Harper, el peor bravucón de la Primaria Carver, ¡vivirá en esa casa! Mientras tanto, se está animando el clima de la competencia para la feria de ciencias de la escuela. Calvin debe decidir qué hacer cuando sus datos no confirman su teoría. ¿Podrá Calvin evitar los problemas con Harper y, además, ganar la feria de ciencias de la escuela?<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"...it's the realistic portrayal of Calvin's emotions and his struggles to understand Harper that make this early chapter book so very readable." <br><i>--Booklist</i> <p/> "Freeman's black and white spot art is cute without being cartoony, catching reality in the slouch of a kid over a gaming console or the glare of a girl about to get reported to the teacher. Readers following the Carver School students will appreciate another warm and approachable outing with the gang." <br><i>--Bulletin</i> <p/> "...Carver is a welcoming, multicultural place. Chronicling the importance of empathy and openness, this fourth in the Carver Chronicles is a pleasing addition to a series in which diverse readers can recognize themselves in starring roles.<b>"</b> <br><i>--Kirkus</i> <p/><b>Praise for The Carver Chronicles</b> <p/> "Many independent readers, particularly boys, will identify with these . . . appealing and likeable characters."<i>--Kirkus</i> <p/> "A much-needed story in which African American boys can see themselves reflected in a positive light, completely free of the usual tropes."<i>--Booklist</i> <p/> "Chapter book readers have few options if they want to read about urban boys of color; here's hoping for more."<i>--The Horn Book</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Karen English </b>fue finalista del Premio Kirkus con su obra <i>It All Comes Down to This</i> y es autora de la serie Nikki & Deja.
