The Year of Billy Miller info
[Juvenile Fiction Ages (10-12) ]
[Read by Dan Bittner]
When Billy Miller has a mishap at the statue of the Jolly Green Giant at the end of summer vacation, he ends up with a big lump on his head. What a way to start second grade! As the year goes by, though, Billy figures out how to navigate elementary school, appreciate his little sister, and be a more grown up and responsible member of the family and a help to his busy working mom and stay-at-home dad. Newbery Honor author Kevin Henkes delivers a short, satisfying, laugh-out-loud-funny school and family story that features a diorama homework assignment, a school poetry slam, cancelled sleepovers, and epic sibling temper tantrums.
