The second in the Mr. Terupt series, this book picks up when the students get Mr. Terupt for another year after he is moved up to sixth grade. Following a similar pattern to Saving Mr. Terupt, the book is told in varying points of view as the young students navigate family drama, adolescence, growing up, and first crushes. I didn't like this one as much as the first book, but I think that's almost always the case with series novels. A fun read that will appeal to middle grade readers.

I think...it takes a very special book like this to make me deliriously happy at the end. Despite the fear-inducing title on behalf of Mr. Terupt, this book made me cry--happily, sadly, and bittersweetly--and laugh with every turn of the page! I wish I had a teacher like Mr. Terupt. I wish everyone had a teacher like him!

I love the characters and the story line in this book, but there are A LOT of puberty references that might be best for kids a little older (6th/7th) rather than 4th.

Once again, this one was a bit cheesy but still a fun book. I felt like this one was a lot more girl centered than the first though, which is too bad since boys seem to be represented less in young adult literature. I’m not sure a boy would love reading chapter after chapter about periods lol.

Another absolutely genuine and lovely visit with the students in Mr. Terupt's now 6th grade classroom. Their intertwined stories are shared with the warmth, wonder and confusion that is and always has been the life of a twelve year old. Bravo to Rob Buyea, and apologies to Mr. Terupt for being one of those pesky people who mispronounce his name (until now!).

So good. I think everyone should read it. It had happy parts, sad parts, and friendship. First was a little better

"Fifth-grade was full of unforgettable events for Mr. Terupt and his class at Snow Hill School. Seven students were particularly affected by Mr. Terupt. Now those seven students are back, and they've been granted the rare opportunity to send one more year with their beloved teacher before they graduate from elementary school. Peter's parents expect him to attend private school after sixth-grade, but Peter has plans to stay right where he is. Eager to grow up, Alexia gets in over her head with some older kids. Danielle suspects that her family is keeping a secret from her, and she's determined to find out what it is. Jeffrey makes a life-changing discovery. Curious about her teacher's past, Jessica uncovers startling details about Mr. Terupt. Anna finally decides she's ready for the truth about her absent dad. And Luke's keen observations lead to questions with unexpected answers.

It's a roller coaster of a year as Mr. Terupt helps his students be the best they can be—and enlists their help to pull off an extra-special project. But will there be a happy ending for all?"
