Gail Donovan
When one boy waffles back and forth, itâ€™s going to take a few little kidsâ€“and one pet ratâ€“to get him to finally make a decision.,Monty is a wafflerâ€“he can never make up his mind, which always gets him in trouble. But when each student in his fourth-grade class is assigned a kindergarten buddy, Monty takes some left-out kindergarteners under his wing, even though itâ€™s against the rules to have more than one buddy. When his blended family and his teachers find out, they give him an ultimatum: choose just one buddy, or have none at all. That stinks! On top of that, his beloved pet rat escapes, and his twin sister stops speaking to him! Monty doesnâ€™t want to cast away his new friends, but he needs to come to a decision before everything spins out of control. With laugh-out-loud humorÂ reminiscent of Andrew Clements, Donovan gets the agonyâ€“and the tremendous funâ€“of elementary school perfectly.
