Title:  My Name is Brain Brian
Author:  Jeanne Betancourt
Reviewer:  Hannah H. '11

This is about a boy named Brian who hates school and so do his best friends John, Richie, and Dan. Over the summer they have hung out around the old Colgate Mansion which was where they had their club house for the Joker's Club. They decide to make school more fun for them. When they make jokes in school and if its a good joke they get money for it. But, when Brian finds out he has dyslexia (a problem with learning), things change with school, friends and his enemies.

I recommend this book to people who like reading about people who have certain problems, and how they deal with them. I would rate this book 9 out of 10 because it had a lot of good similies and the author really did a good job expressing the characters feelings.
