Ask Braden if he likes school and he will tell you what you would expect from any forth-grade boy. Ask him the classic question, "How was school today?" and he is as equally unenthusiastic. But he isn't fooling us. His achievements speak otherwise. During second quarter, he wrote a poem that his class voted one of three to represent them in a school contest. He has recently been placed in his school's prestigious Lynx Club for outstanding academic achievement for third quarter. And he has now preceded to reach his reading goal for forth quarter in one week thanks to Percy Jackson.
I understand that a ten-year-old boy has an image to maintain, but I don't believe for one minute that this over-achieving boy hates school.

Braden, way to go! Sounds like some great accomplishments. We will have to check out Percy Jackson because Diary of a Wimpy Kid was a huge hit!
