I liked how Zinkoff was always laughed in class. How he puked on the teacher's favorite teacher and how he ran all the way home because she told him to never come back. He has that big hat that is like a 3 foot giraffe hat. He giggles a lot and that is very funny.
ReplyDeleteI liked it when he laughed to. It reminds it of myself because I laugh lots.
Deletei agree i thought it was halarias because i puked on his teacher favrote eraser and got sent to detenchin i was like who would do that? I was thinking why did he love his three foot tall gerafe hat?
Deletei like that too. it makes me really happy.
DeleteI though that it was kind of wiered when he laughed all the time.
DeleteI agree because it was funny to hear the teacher get angry at hime for puking on the erase.
DeleteI felt sad for Zinkoff, because he grew a bond with his giraffe hat and a bully was trying to make him cry. I also felt a conection beetween Zinkoff and I because he gets punished for laughing, and I get in trouble for being noisy as my mom watchs a show.
ReplyDeleteI agree whith you Adam and i felt like what would happen if the bully made him cry?Why dose he lagh so much i was like who would get in truble for laghing? me to i felt that conection to [at my house]when i lagh at a funny show i am watching and then she gets realy mad at me some times.
DeleteI felt bad for Zinkoff to because he loved that hat. He even wore it on the first day of school for goodness sakes! These chapters haven`t been that exciting but i`m sure they will get way better!
DeleteThat bully was pretty rude and he was not a person i would like.
DeleteIn the beginning of the book I admired the introduction and how it said from the text: You don't even know his name. And then one day you do. You here someone say a name, and somehow you just know that's who the belongs to, it's that kid. Zinkoff.
ReplyDeleteMy impression on the first few chapters were off on the right foot. I loved the way Zinkoff acted. He was always in a good mood, laughing, smiling and joking around. I especially liked how it explained Zinkoff puking on a daily basis, in his dads mail bag, and on the teachers eraser, in a bucket, or the nearest toilet.
I can't wait to read the next chapters!
Isabella I agree with you!He is always laughing like he doesn`t care.Also he pukes like he doesn`t care!I can`t wait to read the next chapters either!
DeleteI bet the next few chapters will be great!!!! Zinkoffs like a robot because hes so happy. Why do you think he pucks so much?
DeleteMy feelings were like who would were a tall girafe hat? donald zinkof met this one 4th grader. The fourth grader said it was his hat and donald zinkof said'well ill just let you ceap it then.Another part was when donald zinkof used the teachers eraser for the smart bord she freaked out so much she sent him to the princeibals offace I started laghing like crazy[ in my mind.]
ReplyDeleteI also enjoyed this part when Zinkoff puked on Mrs.Biswell's eraser, but why couldn't Zinkoof just puke somewhere else to prevent getting sent to the principal's office?
DeleteI feel like Zinkoff didnt really know that he was being bullied maybe he did. I agree two who would wear a long giraffe hat?
DeleteI don't think Zinoff understood what the 4th grader was saying.
DeleteThis book is about a boy named Donald Zinkoff.This kid isn`t normal.He`s supposed to be in a much higher class but instead he`s in second grade!On the first day of school he wears his tall giraffe hat!But his favorite sport is soccer.I think so far that this story is pretty good. The beginning may not start out so well but I sure arn`t going to book hop!
ReplyDeleteHow do you know he's supposed to be in a higher class? I don't think he shows any sign of getting to a higher level. If he does then maybe you see, but I don't.
DeleteI agree that zinkoff dosent care when people bulling him
ReplyDeleteI kind of liked how Zinkoff is always laughing and later on he dosen't follow directions. Earlier in the book Zinkoff laughed then fell out of his chair. Now it is more serious. He accually threw up on the teacrers eraser, crossed the line. the book is really good so far.
ReplyDeleteLoser
ReplyDeleteAt first when I read this I didnt really get the book it was kinda connfusing because I felt like words were kind of everywhere exept that I really liked the book. Where I didnt get it in the book It said that there was this kid and he raced with himself and then it said he race with another kid and I didnt get it.
When I read the book I felt happy and angry. Zinoff is always happy, and never said at school. People are always picking on him and being rude. He doesn't know it because he is always happy. The reason I am happy because he likes to always to do everything, and never complains. He always is nice and do things for people.
