Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing is perfect for readers who are moving past picture books and diving headfirst into the exciting world of chapter books. The language is simple, and each chapter/story is short and snappy—giving you a perfect time to take a break whenever the going gets tough. And the subject matter is perfect for kids too; sibling rivalries and family dynamics are themes that everyone can relate to, no matter how young or old.
