Product Description
Tyrone rules the school! He's king of the monkey bars, a math machine, and a science whiz. The only thing he doesn't like about school is reading. Books are so boring! But when strange visitors start dropping by the classroom for story hour, Tyrone discovers there's more to books than just words on pages. Tyrone and his friends are swept up in a mysterious adventure that lands them in a most unexpected place. Mrs. Laura Bush and her daughter Jenna create a classroom adventure that will leave readers racing to the shelves! A portion of proceeds to benefit Teach for America and The New Teacher Project.

poorly written May 11, 2008 5 out of 8 found this review helpful
Dull writing and a trite message make this book a waste of time. I can't imagine any child enjoying it.
Contribution to children's literacy May 10, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Barbara and Jenna, Thank you for writing this book. I too had a Tyrone as a student in my teaching career! I like the way you reinforced in your interviews the benefits of reading to children when they are babies. They learn left to right progression, page turning and learn to follow the spoken and written word. The added benefit is a caring relationship of child and reader. I cannot wait to read this book to my grandson. I will give this book as shower and birthday gifts. Thank you for such a positive project with proceeds to benefit recruiting teachers.
"Great" Way to Introduce Reading April 26, 2008 10 out of 54 found this review helpful
This book just proves that celebrities could vomit onto a blank page and publishers would publish it.

This is a great book. I highly recommend this book to parents and also teachers to read it to their class.
Reading is Cool April 25, 2008 54 out of 56 found this review helpful
Thank you, Laura and Jenna for using your celebrity to promote reading! I have taught reading for the past 16 years. I love to read and I love books. I try to pass this love to my students. The younger a child can start to appreciate books and reading the better.
Sometimes little boys are a little more difficult to win over to the benefits of reading. This book shows not only little boys, but all children that reading is cool.
Buy this book for your children and grandchildren. Buy it for your friend's children and grandchildren. It is a great baby shower gift because you can't start too early teaching a child to love reading.
