Dear Class,The book I'm reading is Loser by Jerry Spinelli. The book is about a first grader named Donald Zinkoff. Zinkoff was having fun at school because he loved the teachers. But the teachers didn't seem to like him back. Probably because he laughed to much, or he would be a huge distraction to the class. Over the years this has been going on and he had
no friends. In fourth grade, at Field Day he was on the running relay, and he was the anchor.The person in front of him gave their team the lead by half the track. When the person before Zinkoff tagged Zinkoff, Zinkoff was running but when he was halfway done the other teams had taken the lead. When Zinkoff finished in dead last his teammates came up to him and said,"you loser" over and over. That's how far in the book I'm on right now.
One of my questions was why did the running coach put Zinkoff in the anchor position? I also was surprised the teacher said, "YOU'RE NEVER ALLOWED IN MY CLASSROOM AGAIN!!!!!!"
Sincerely,
RJM

Do you think Zinkoff is a weird name?

I can't belive a teacher would say that!
I LOVE JERRY SPINELLI HE SOUNDS LIKE A GREAT BOOK SINCERLY,lb
WOW! Why did the teacher say that to Zinkoff? Yikes.
Have you finished this book yet? I'm interested to see why Jerry Spinelli wrote so that Zinkoff has such a hard time.
I think I've read the first few chapters of this book. Is this the one where Zinkoff wears his giant giraffe hat to school on the first day?
Nice work!
