Clementine (Clementine, 1)

My then seven-year-old niece ran up to me one day and asked in an urgent tone if I had read Clementine. Confused and thinking of the fruit, I hesitatingly said, “No?” She ran off and returned seconds later, thrusting the book into my hands. She insisted I read it. I’m so glad I did!Clementine is laugh out loud hilarious! I read the whole series within a week or so. It’s Junie B. Jones-ish, but on a higher reading level with a little more complex issues.Now I read the first in the series with my fourth graders, and many of the kids will continue the series on their own.Sometimes when the kids are reading to themselves, I’ll hear someone laugh out loud. I will glance over and often see that they are reading Clementine, and I will think back to that day my niece insisted I read this delightful book.

I am so glad that I decided to purchase this book as a read aloud for my classroom. My students can't wait for me to read another chapter. Both my girls and boys are interested in the story which is often a difficult task to accomplish. Clementine is a unique character and allows a lot of possibilities for discussions and tying in standards from the common core. My students are excited to read more books in the series.

My great granddaughter starts 3rd grade this year and she can read this book herself. I got it for her 8th birthday but will buy the rest of the series for Christmas. She carries it around with her. I wish there was a Clementine doll to go with the books. I remember Nancy Drew books when I was growing up so I am glad this generation has Clementine!

I gave my granddaughter the first two books when she started second grade. She loved them so I got her Book 3. She is a solid decoder reader and these books gave her some challenge but not too overwhelming.

Best written kids book I’ve seen in a while. It really gets inside the head of a wild and brainy kid. It’s funny and surprising at every turn. I enjoy it as much as my 6yo daughter. TBH it’s a bit too crazy in parts. I skipped over Clementine’s description of how to fake washing your hands and get away with it.

Such a cute and fun series ! My daughter begs me to read them to her ! Although, she is 8 and also capable of reading them by herself .

My granddaughter, age 7, LOVES the Clementine series. She loves the entire Gooney Bird Series, which is a fantastic series for building confidence in young girls, while covering a broad spectrum of topics, both educational and emotional. However, now that she's reading the Clementine Series, she said she likes her because "she's more like me."

If you are looking for stories you kids will love? The Clementine stories are it. She's a laugh riot.
