Synopsis

Back Cover School is a place for learning. We all know that. But sometimes your talent can get lost in the stats. We’ve got CRCTs, SATs, ACTs, MATs, and graduation tests. But what we forget to measure are the things kids do best.Take these four kids for example…all blessed with special skills. They barely get to use them in between all those practice drills. But it was no secret to all the kids in the neighborhood…they all knew that when these kids put their talents together; there’s nothing they couldn’t do. That’s why they got together after school to handle their biz. And so begins today’s adventure with the Whiz Kidz’.In this adventure of the Whiz Kidz, Robby and the rest of the team help Peter learn that our weaknesses can become our strengths with hard work and support from those who care for us. Although things might be difficult, we can succeed, especially when you have friends like the Whiz Kidz to support you.

À propos de l'auteur

The Whiz Kidz is the brainchild of Peter Card, a 20 year teacher. Peter has taught students at all age ranges from Pre-Kindergarten through college freshmen. Peter has spent the majority of his teaching career in the elementary grade levels. It was this experience that led to the creation of the Whiz Kidz. These inspiring, humorous, and teacher- friendly stories are meant to help children see that school and learning is more about finding their strengths and talents than defining themselves by high stakes testing scores. Mr. Card shared this idea with some of his fellow teachers and together they began the series known today as the Whiz Kidz. The problems in the book mirror some of the real life situations the teachers faced in their own childhood and/ or adulthood. Peter is originally from Monticello, Georgia, and the youngest of five children. He and his wife Cheryl, currently teacher overseas in the United Arab Emirates.
