Not Really Buddies — Jan Carr

A laugh-out-loud new illustrated chapter book series celebrating the roller coaster highs and lows of life in a second grade classroom.

Buddy has a good feeling about second grade. He knows where to go, his best friend is in his class, and he's ready for a great year. And then Bea shows up -- new, tardy, and showing off brand new stitches. Buddy was not expecting Bea.  

Bea's fast talking and upside-down thinking leave Buddy feeling buzzy -- and with his hair full of mayonnaise. How will he and Bea ever figure out how to get along in the same classroom community?
