Personal Review: The Report Card by Andrew Clements
The Report Card is a good example of showing that kids can actually make
a difference. I really liked this book!
Nora is a eleven-year-old girl with two smart older siblings. She is a genius
but keeps it a secret because she doesn't want to stand out! For her first
report card, her parents were expecting average grades because that's

what Nora usually got. Instead of average grades, Nora got all D's and one
C! Her parents were very upset because she wasn't doing her best and
wasn't herself at school or at home. The reason for all the chaos was her
best friend Stephan. Stephan wasn't the smartest boy in the class but Nora
thought he could be! Nora's big plan was what would happen when every
kid in the school got really bad grades on tests and quizzes. Nora thought
school was for fun and to learn a little bit, but not to do work! She was
totally wrong. When she got to school the next day, she found out that
mostly every kid had gotten a zero on every paper that had been assigned
to them. Nora knew what she was doing was totally wrong to the worst
degree, but she thought it was great that she was actually making a
difference! When all the teachers found out about Nora's plan they took it
straight down to the principal and told her what was happening and who
was a ahead of all the mess. The principal found out Nora was the one,
she called her down to her office and made her confess what she did. Nora
ended up telling everyone she was very smart and just wanted to make a
difference. She told them she did it because having Stephan feel so bad
about himself she wanted him to feel better and to think he was actually
smart.
This book was so powerful, I couldn't put it down! I recommend this book to
all kids who are worried about their grades!
