What's Everybuggy Reading: Spider

A Couple of Boys Have the Best Week Ever

by Marla Frazee
Harcourt Books, 2008

If my awesome hair looks a little green, it’s because I'm so jealous of James and Eamon’s exciting week in A Couple of Boys Have the Best Week Ever! I want banana waffles and air mattress forts and videogames, too!! Most of all, I want to hang out with my best bud for a whole week without Ophelia nagging us to eat our vegetables!

In this book, James goes to stay with Eamon’s grandparents while the two boys attend nature camp. Turns out nature camp isn’t all that exciting—they’re more entertained by playing super-fun games and making up secret handshakes! They even have a buddy nickname: Jamon! But my favorite part of the book might be the amazing ending. HINT: It involves walking like penguins. So, James and Eamon, when are you coming to visit me? My whole LIFE is a nature camp!

Spider, I would like to have the best week ever. But I don't have to go to summer camp! I can spend time with my family (ALTHOUGH the things they did sounded awesome) and have the best week ever.
