A laugh-out-loud illustrated chapter book series celebrating the roller coaster highs and lows of life in a second grade classroom.

It's the second week of school, and Buddy is wondering if the other second grade class might be more fun. They've even chosen a cool class name. How will his class ever compete? Especially when Ms. Maple says they shouldn't be competing at all? 

Buddy and Bea are still sorting out how to coexist in their classroom--and making plenty of memorable missteps along the way.

This funny and fast-paced series stars a hilariously unlikely buddy duo, making it irresistible to chapter book readers.
"Carr persuasively conveys the sparkle, earnest enthusiasm, and occasional boisterous silliness of second graders, and these funny school moments feel genuine."—Kirkus Reviews
