Publisher Description
Popular author Gordon Korman pens a funny fish-out-of-water tale that even the most reluctant reader will find impossible to resist.
Capricorn Anderson has spent his entire life on a farm with his hippie grandmother. After an accident puts Grandma in the hospital, Cap is forced to attend Claverage Middle School and live with his guidance counselor. The tradition at Claverage is for students to nominate the biggest nerd for class president, and Cap is the obvious choice. But with his odd ways and positive outlook, Cap just might turn the joke upside down by becoming the best class president ever.

"I thought this book was very good. It really showed how cruel someone people can be an also emphasized a certain lesson. That lesson is it does not matter what you look like on the outside but really matters whats on the inside. It also had some humorous parts in it and I would recommend it to everyone."
