Book Description
Alexandria P. Knowitall, also known as Smart Alec Alex, is a 6th grader at T.K Spittle Middle School. Alex thinks she is the smartest kid in the school, but in reality, she is a smart aleck. With her snappy comebacks and her "I'm always right" attitude, Alex definitely does not "know it all". In Smart Alec Alex "Changing schools and Classroom Rules", Alex is faced with doing things like the "Middle School" kids. Changing classes--"Boy this is new, I'm not sure we're going to like this. I wonder what my BFF's will think. Allow me to introduce you to my BFF's: First, we have Candice Smug. Candice worries about her looks. "I hope I can check my hair in between classes. Is there a mirror around?" says Candice. Calvin Clueless is a nervous little guy who repeats everything twice. Don't you Calvin? "It's true, it's true. I do, I do," says Calvin. He's pretty smart too. And then there's my flower child, Sissy Sillington, who is silly and laughs at everything, "LOL, stop it....I don't laugh at everything," giggles Sissy. As Alex rotates from class to class with her three favorite buddies, they find themselves amazingly amused by the whacky personalities of each teacher. The Art teacher is a whimsical lady, who is all over the place, dipping and dodging around the class like a leaf blowing in the wind. The English teacher is confusing, she speaks French/English with a country accent and wears a beret with country clothing and the Math teacher is so short, he has to carry around a stool to stand on just to teach the class. This is the first chapter book of the Smart Alec Alex series. Join Alex on a hilarious ride as you follow her day-to-day capers as a smart-aleck 6th Grader, AKA Alexandria P. Knowitall.

Alex & Me

Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 241
Book Description
'A moving tribute that beautifully evokes the struggles, the initial triumphs, the setbacks, the unexpected and often stunning achievemnets . . . [while] uncovering cognitive abilities in Alex that no one believed were possible.'Publishers WeeklyOn September 6, 2007, an African Grey parrot named Alex died prematurely at age thirty-one. His last words to his owner, Irene Pepperberg, were 'You be good. I love you'.What would normally be a quiet, very private event was, in Alex's case, headline news. Over the thirty years they had worked together, Alex and Irene had become famous - two pioneers who opened an unprecedented window into the hidden yet vast world of animal minds. Alex's brain was the size of a shelled walnut, and when Irene and Alex first met, birds were not believed to possess any potential for language, consciousness, or anything remotely comparable to human intelligence. Yet, over the years, Alex proved many things. He could add. He could sound out words. He understood concepts like bigger, smaller, more, fewer, and none. He was capable of thought and intention. Together, Alex and Irene uncovered a startling reality: We live in a world populated by thinking, conscious creatures.The fame that resulted was extraordinary. Yet there was a side to their relationship that never made the papers. They were emotionally connected to one another. They shared a deep bond far beyond science. Alex missed Irene when she was away. He was jealous when she paid attention to other parrots, or even people. He liked to show her who was boss. He loved to dance. He sometimes became bored by the repetition of his tests, and played jokes on her. Sometimes they sniped at each other. Yet nearly every day, they each said, 'I love you'.Alex and Irene stayed together through thick and thin - despite sneers from experts, extraordinary financial sacrifices, and a nomadic existence from one university to another. The story of their thirty-year adventure is equally a landmark of scientific achievement and of an unforgettable human-animal bond.
