I loved this book because i love dogs and getting along with others. And me and my friend Talor read this book together and we hope you like this book to.!

Mattie dreads 5th grade. She's been hopped around so many times, she can't keep count! So, she decides to try to become an assistant to her uncle, the janitor, while she has to make sure that Quincy Sweet, her next-door neighbor, doesn't get in her way. So when she starts writing stories about her missing button on her pajamas, Moe, and when her uncle trips on a wire to the vacuum, while she is stuck in the prinical's office, everything turns upside down, until the day she starts 5th grade. The teacher has EVERYBODY introduce herself, instead of just her, because she's the new kid. This is an awesome story, with an awesome ending! Everyone should read it!
