This Saturday, Julie Packett is back with the second in her series: The Chronicles of Ms. Clarke’s Class. This time it’s Battling Bots so you can add to your collection that should already include Science Night, or you can grab ’em both at Main Street Reads, in paperback OR hardcover!
Following the success of Science Night, Ms. Clarke wants to keep the STEM momentum going in class 5B with a field trip to a high school robotics competition. As soon as those battling bots are in sight, Emilio, an easy-going dreamer, and Sadie, a driven inventor, immediately want to start a class robotics team. Can they convince Ms. Clarke and the other students to compete in the school’s first-ever Fifth Grade Robotics Competition?
We look so forward to having Julie back at the store – help us give her a Summerville warm welcome! Find out more »
