Our protagonist is George, a.k.a. Suds, who has just started third grade. Now, Suds has heard the famous rhyme about different grades: first grade babies, second grade cats, third grade angels, and fourth grade rats. But what does this mean for his school year? Hold on tight as we find out!
Suds quickly realizes that his teacher, Mrs. Simms, has a monthly competition to determine who deserves to be awarded "the halo." Essentially, she's on the hunt for the student who is the most well-behaved, kindest to others, and, basically, perfect. And Suds is determined to be the first to earn that shiny halo.
But here's the catch - being good all the time is turning out to be way more challenging than Suds expected. He's feeling the pressure of always having to be on his best behavior. Is being good a requirement even outside of school? Does he have to be nice to his annoying little sister? These are the burning questions that Suds grapples with.
To make matters even more interesting, Suds wonders if his good deeds only count if Mrs. Simms is there to witness them. Can he get away with being a secret do-gooder? Or does it have to be out in the open for it to count? These dilemmas keep Suds on his toes as he tries to navigate the complex world of elementary school.
With the masterful storytelling of Jerry Spinelli, this audiobook brings us back to the magical and hilarious world of elementary school. Get ready for laughter, warmth, and a rollercoaster of emotions as you join Suds on his mission to earn the coveted halo. So sit back, relax, and get ready to embark on an unforgettable journey with Suds and his tumultuous third-grade adventures.
