Overview
Meet the kids in Mrs. Z’s wacky and wonderful third-grade class! Wyatt Hill has a stepbrother with a lot of opinions, a stuffed lizard who knows everything Wyatt wants to say, and the beginnings of a voice that might end up surprising the whole school.
Nobody knows anything about Wyatt Hill. He’s the quiet giant of Mrs. Z’s class, sure . . . but his classmates wonder what is he like? What does he like? What does he do? (Does he play the ukelele?) And it often seems like his stepbrother and stepsister don’t get him either.
But Wyatt knows who he is. He adores his stuffed lizard, Lizzie, and the lively conversations they share. He notices who’s having a bad day and thinks about why the boys and girls in Mrs. Z’s class don’t play together at recess. He’s starting to put words down on paper to express all the things he feels inside.
And when quiet Wyatt decides to speak up, it just might cause a revolution—on the playground and at home.
Both sweetly poignant and laugh-out-loud funny, with black-and-white illustrations by Pura Belpré Honor artist Kat Fajardo, Wyatt’s story invites readers into Mrs. Z’s class where friendship and fun rule the school, from New York Times bestselling author Eliot Schrefer.
