Zara's Rules for Record-Breaking Fun
Zara's Rules for Record-Breaking Fun | Hena Khan
1 post | 1 read
Ten-year-old (nearly eleven) Zara's nickname is "Queen of the Neighborhood" because she organizes the other children (even the older ones), sets the rules, and generally makes sure everyone has fun; but now another ten-year-old, Naomi, has moved in across the street and she has her own ideas about fun games, and suddenly the other kids (even Zara's younger brother Zayd) are listening to Naomi--if she is going to retain her influence Zara needs to come up with something quick, and an old copy of the Guinness Book of World Records gives her an idea.

"Zara is a little bit older than me. Three years older. While trying to break a hula hooping record she made it to one hour before her brother ran into her with his bike while trying to dry off from swimming. It was kinda okay though because she didn't know about all the papers she had to fill out to break a record officially for the Guinness Book of World Records. Kids in my grade would like this book because it reminds us to read...

MaggieCarr ...through the instructions, try and try again, and forgive our annoying brothers." -Cadee, age 9.

(April 2022 release. Thanks to SLJ for the copy they sent my mom)
