of Attack of the Chicken Nugget Man by Parents, Students, Teachers, and Administrators

"A while ago I was researching one evening on the internet trying to find EOG strategies, insight, or hints to use in the classroom when I came across your site. I immediately placed my order and ever since - it has been wonderful! First of all, my students have loved the book since I purchased it. In fact, I have 3 students who have actually purchased it themselves! It is great because from the minute I read the title of the book, it sparked their curiosity. While reading, it is amazing how well they tune in to me because they do not want to miss anything. Did I forget to mention how hilarious it is!! One day, my students (and I) were laughing so hard that some classes down the hall could hear us! Kudos to the author for doing a great job of creating a story that is amusing yet connected to NC Standard Course of Study. Other parts of the book I like are the Knowledge Nuggets! They are awesome tidbits to share. Additionally, I love the questions at the end of each chapter because they are correlated with Bloom's and I always get great responses from the students. In my classroom, this book is a hit!"
