There's a Boy in the Girls' Bathroom Kindle Edition

My son just moved to the 3rd grade, and this was on the list for his summer reading. I didn't read what it was; I just searched on Amazon, saw the stars, and bought it. We just finished chapter 28, halfway through, and I can't wait to finish it. 😆 It is very well written, and the first-person dialogue makes it very entertaining. My son said right on the very first day of reading, "Oh boy, I'm glad we got this book!" It's just that good; it keeps you engaged and involved. Good stuff. We are very happy we got this book 📖 😀

This book was read to me when I was in second grade. That was in 1993. I remember our teacher said we could lay our heads down on our desk and either have a short nap or listen to this story for an hour. She would read for an hour each day and it quickly became my favorite part of the school day. I could never nap because I just had to know what happened next in Bradley Chalkers story. It was uplifting and inspiring to listen to the triumphant story of a 5th grade boy who struggled in school to be liked and to beleive in himself. Now 22 years later I have a little boy in 1st grade and he has come to enjoy chapter books and I knew this would be one of the books I had to read to my children. This book is especially suitable for my little boy as he has ADHD and is struggling a bit in school this year. He isn't overtly mean like Bradly is in the beginning of the story but he too has some behavior struggles and finds it a bit difficult to beleive in himself at times. Its a great opportunity to be able to spend some time together and watch him put himself in Bradly's shoes. It's been fun to see how intuitive and bright my little boy is as we read this together and he shares his insights with me. I'm grateful my second grade teacher read this to our class in 1993 and that I can now read this to my own children in 2015. I have found that it is just as relevant today as it was back then.

The book was in perfect shape my daughter needed it for school. I ordered and received the next day.

I have read this book before and it is a fantastic book. I’ve really been trying to get my hands on it but buy from somewhere else. Amazon has said this would come overnight and then updates the shipping status every day extending arrival. They’ve gotten pretty good at this shady business. The book is a really good story and very entertaining. I’d recommend buying the book but not from this shipper.

This book should be read by child psychologists everywhere! It truly captures the essence of being a troubled kid who wants to be loved. Engaging, hilarious, and touching, this novel is one of the greats. I'd strongly recommend it to any reader of any age!

This is a great book. My 10 year old son read it aloud to me/with me. Bradley is a very realistic character. At first he doesn’t seem very lovable, but you will grow to love him and appreciate him. You may even feel sorry for him. As the book progresses, the reader learns about how Bradley grows as a person. The ending is sweet. My son was sad that the book ended. This is the first chapter book that was son ever said he “loved”. Give it a try!

if you read the begining you say this is an average book. But the last 20 chapters you can not be human if you dont cry the slightest bit. Nobody dies. A twist ending. The main thing is to notice how much Bradly Changes. When he has to go to the barber and not school at the end and clara leaves the note dont read the not or you will cry yourself to sleep that night. If clara was not in this story I would have not cryed or liked the book. Bradley (at the end) is most likely the sweetest person ever.A boy in the girls bathroom is not the main plot (a girl also goes in the boys bathroom but that is a miner detale to the story). My favorite part is when Bradley doesnt fight jeff and realizes peace is the best way to go. Get at least 20 tissues at the last 5 chapters. Later in life if you need to cry to somehow acomplish something remmber this book. Bradley sister is my least favorite character because she makes fun of bradley for everything about him she doesnt like. This book i say is for 6+

I read this book, Sunday (Feb. 17, 2002) while I was going through a sad time. I love this book, and when I first read it when I was in middle school, I knew it was a special book. "There's a Boy in the Girl's bathroom" is funny, heartwarming, genuine, sincere, and powerful.Bradley Chalkers---he is considered the "monster" in the book because he misbehaves, and he thinks he is a "monster" on the inside and the outside. His counselor, Carol, sees Bradley as the sweetest little boy deep inside himself. At first, Bradley doesn't want to listen to her, but then he does, and his life makes a beautiful transition. He is the person that he always was supposed to be. The likeable boy that everyone comes to adore."There's a Boy in the Girl's Bathroom" is a story about a little boy that changes. It touches me so much because in that 195 page you see Bradley change into the person that he was meant to be. I was feeling bad yesterday, but when I read that it makes me realize that if Bradley Chalkers, a fifth grader, can change his life so young, we all can too. It feels good to know that we can all grow and mature with a little help for people who care about us.
