One of my students is a huge fan of Big Nate, and when he bought it at our recent book fair, and read it in one day, I knew I had to read it as well. What a fun, fun book! And I loved the emphasis put on both creativity and teamwork in this book in the Big Nate series. A great addition to our library!

This is the second Big Nate book I've read and I just love these books so much. This book mainly talked about Nate's school's students competing against the Jefferson's school. The Jefferson school is the life long winner and Nate's school is a total loser. I liked this book because it tells us a moral: there are never total winners, everyone have a weakness. This tells us this life lesson, that could help us manage our feelings when we get frustrated, when we lose or when we met their kind of situation.

This book was awesome. It has so much humor in this book. It includes a kid named Nate, who's just like me, in middles school, and gets into some trouble. Nates school has a gas leak, so they have to go to their rival school, and stay there for the rest of the trimester. So, will Nate be able to keep it together for the remainder of the trimester? Also, my favorite part is when they do a snowman building competition and they find that Jefferson Middle School cheated, and they finally defeated the Jefferson Eagles.

This book is very addicting, it's very hard to get off. It's a good book to enjoy and it also has some comic parts to it. Nate does everything odd in the book. Nate's archenemy (Gina) is trying to edit the yearbook but he thought she would make everything about herself some he told his friend (Francis) to be the Co-editor and do stuff to stop her from taking over, this book can be found in Sora. Superpro book, must-read ;).

The title of the book I finished reading was Big Nate: Goes For Broke.The author of this book is Lincoln Peirce. It is a fictional book and has 216 pages.The Main Characters are Nate, Dee Dee, Francis, Teddy and the Jefferson Middle School students.The book is about a boy named Nate, who complains that the Jefferson students always win everything, which is proved by the fact that Jefferson won at everything against Nate's school, P.S. 38 for the last few years. Dee Dee says no one truly wins everything, and that everybody has a weakness. It is easier said than done, as Nate's friends try to look for Jefferson Middle School's weakness. Will they find it?To find out more, read the book.I would recommend this book for people who like cartoon books like the Diary of a Wimpy Kid, for example.Thank you for reading!

i liked this book because Nate is enraged to find out Jefferson is better than them. Later in the book, he goes to a dance. Trouble starts when the fire alarm goes off. The school is closed and the kids

** spoiler alert ** My thoughts on the book big nate goes for broke are that he has all of this terrrible luck and is very amusing to read. He is so scared of what will happen on his way to baseball practice. I felt scared for him because he almost fell off a bridge. He also tries to go for a record.

Big Nate Goes For Broke by Lincoln Peirce was a very good book. I rally liked how Nate had to go to the rival middle school which he always seems to have problems with while the school is getting the water drained from the gym. It was also cool to compare how Nate has evolved throughout the book and has become more mature. Th only thing I disliked about it was that it seemed like they spent to much time getting the problem and not enough to time solving it. In this book Nate is having a rivalry with Jefferson because Nate's school has not won a competition against Jefferson for 7 years. He sets out to beat them at something to break the streak. As this is happening Nate's school has a sprinkler problem and they have to go to Jefferson to have school. Also Nate finds out that they have a doodling club just like Nate's school. Then Nate finally comes up with a competition to have that he can win. And the rest is for you to find out. I would recommend this book to anyone who has read a previous Big Nate but this is a little more for children 5-15 than it would be for an adult. Also this would be suited more for boys than it would be for girls.
