Love this book!!!!! So many funny jokes. Dan Gutman is an AWESOME writer

I loved this book so so so so so so much!!!!!!!!! It is a great realistic fiction story!!!!!!! It is about a boy who runs for president and thinks everything is perfect, but it really is not. I think this book is for both boys and girls because theres the same amount of girls as there is boys in the story. I hope you like it!!!!

This was a great book! So the main character: a boy named Judson is tired of grownups "ruining" the world. When he announces he's running for president, everyone thinks he's joking but he's actually serious. With the help of his friend and neighbor, he gets 200 signatures and makes 20 million dollars from a lemonade stand and then qualifies for president. But when its election night, Judson finally realizes the truth, even though the truth might hurt sometimes.
