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

It was fantastic, of course. I love the writing style and characters of this series. I’m excited to finally finish the whole set!

RATING: 4 stars
Definitely improved from the first book, but the relationships with Mr. Terupt are still shallow. Terupt's character himself is overrated. Despite that and the occasional soap opera moment, there were some sweet chapters and good lessons taught.

"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?"

A good sequel but a little older than the first. Maybe a 6-8th book instead of middle grade.

A good read for middle grade readers who are headed to middle school. Some mature themes, but Buyea presents realistically and respectfully. Fans of the first novel in this trilogy will love seeing these characters continue to grow and develop.
