Loser by Jerry Spinelli
**** stars
Have you ever wondered how it feel to be a first grader? Well Donald Zinkoff can tell you what its like! Zinkoff is like all kids he runs alot and rides his bike and plays with his friends Andrew and Polly. Hoping for snow days, wanting to be his dad when he grows up.
But Zinkoff is not like the other kids in his class, he has the mannors of a old man and is nice and is a great kid! But as most first graders he trips over his own feet, falling down with laughter over a word like "Jabip" and him laughing is makeing all his clasmates laugh. The kids have their own word to describe him, but Zinkoff is too busy to hear it.
Newbery Medal-winning author Jerry Spinelli uses alot of humor to create the different story of Zinkoff as a kid that only wants to be in school. Loser is a great book and teaches us how great life can be if we have fun.
