Attack of the Chicken Nugget Man: A California Cst AdventureThird-grader Chris Robb just can't seem to do anything right. Failing tests, getting blamed for things he didn't do, and struggling to make friends; it's safe to say that school isn't Chris's favorite place. It is, however, the craziest school you'll ever read about. His teacher has the strangest name Chris has ever heard, and the students in his class are anything but normal. One kid even spends all day sticking random things up his nose. But that's not the end of the craziness. A Chicken Nugget Man is out there somewhere, and people are terrified of him. Only kids can see the Chicken Nugget Man, so a test is created to find kids smart enough to help capture him. Chris thinks there's no way he will ever pass the CST, but as it turns out, he might have a little help, and a little hope, after all. |
