Books with title Jake Drake, Bully Buster/Jake Drake, Know-It-All

Third-grader Jake Drake has always been good with computers. Now the local computer store is sponsoring his elementary school's science fair. The grand prize is a brand-new computer, so Jake is more than ready to get started on his project. But first he needs an idea. And maybe a partner, too. Jake Drake Know-It-All is the second addition to Andrew Clements' series, which began with Jake Drake Bully Buster. Filled with characters and situations that all school-aged children will identify with, Clements' good-natured Jake Drake books are perfect first chapter books. Narrator Johnny Heller keeps the pace just right as Jake makes his scientific discoveries.

MEET JAKE DRAKE, BULLY BUSTER. When Jake was three years old at Miss Lulu's Dainty Diaper Day Care Center, what did he know about bullies? Nothing. But he learned fast! Why? Because Jake was kind of smart and not a tattletale, and he had no big brother to protect him. He was a perfect bully magnet. But everything changed the year Jake was in second grade. That's when SuperBully Link Baxter moved to town. Jake had his hands full just trying to survive, until class project time. Who did the teacher assign to be Link's partner? You guessed it. Jake has to use all his smarts -- and his heart as well -- to turn himself from Jake Drake, Bully Magnet, to Jake Drake, Bully Buster.
