Children's Literature - Jamie Hain

Freddy and his first grade classmates are going on a school field trip to an apple orchard. The only problem with the trip is that the class's biggest bully, Freddy's archenemy Max, is going on the trip too. There are lots of fun things planned for the trip like going on hay rides, watching an apple cider press, eating fresh cider doughnuts, and even going on a scavenger hunt for a red wooden apple. Soon, Freddy realizes that things are not always fun at the apple orchard. He and Max get lost, and Freddy learns that sometimes bullies aren't as tough as they act. Part of the "Ready, Freddy" series, this book is perfect for public or school libraries serving early grade school children. Teachers looking for school stories to incorporate into the elementary school classroom will like the book's appeal to both boys and girls. Readers will enjoy Freddy's realistic world of annoying older siblings, best friends, class bullies, and exciting adventure. Reviewer: Jamie Hain
