Produktinformationen zu „The Worst Five Months Ever (ePub)“
Fifth grader Travis is constantly bullied by his twin cousins, Howie and Homer Hall. When their parents separate and move out of their current school district, Traviss parents invite the boys to stay with them until the end of the school year. As the months pass, Travis anger and frustration grows. He is not only constantly on the defensive with his cousins, but eventually he feels that they have taken his place in his own family.
Throughout the five months Travis is given lots of advice by his irascible grandfather, erudite college professor dad and suspicious mom. Despite Howies constant griping, there are events in which the three boys participate. At the school Talent Night theyre in a skit: Whos On First? with a live parrot, they help build a double-decker tree house, and they go to the coast for Spring Break. For Traviss birthday, Grandpa takes him to a Spurs game, where Traviss hero, Tim Duncan, at Grandpas request, wishes Travis a happy birthday, fist-bumping him and the most awesome thinggives him an autographed basketball. Travis swears he will keep it forever.
When a horrible incident occurs, it tests the courage and character of each boy.
This story takes place when Tim Duncan still played for the San Antonio Spurs.

Autoren-Porträt von Katharine Weeks Folkes
Writing for kids is Folkes’ passion. In this book, she addresses the problem of bullying seriously, balanced with light hearted moments. Rather than the main character being bullied by outsiders, as in most books about bullying, Travis is constantly bullied by his cousins. He describes this time with indignant candor and sarcastic humor. Folkes has been published in Cricket Magazine, Highlights for Children, and in Summer Shorts, an anthology. She is a member of the Society of Children’s Books Writers and Illustrators.
She attended St Catherine’s Episcopal School in Richmond, VA., Mary Baldwin College in Staunton, VA, and the University of Georgia, in Athens, GA. Originally from Augusta, Georgia, she makes her home in San Antonio, Texas.
