Nobody Is Perfick written by Bernard Waber, reviewed by Terry Wahrman

Summary:  Sometimes life can be annoying!  What do you do when a person says they want you to stop scaring them, but really loves to be scared?  Or when someone starts telling you a story, but is laughing so hard they cannot finish it?  These are some scenarios in this short story collection.
This collection of short stories proves that you can write about any of life’s inconsequential occurrences, instill a little laughter or shock, and you too can be an author. You can laugh or be indignant for the people in the stories. 

Straight Talk for Librarians:  The collection of life’s inconsequential stories is a great way to teach writing.  Everyone has a story inside them waiting to come to be written.  Nobody is perfick felt like I was reading a collection of 4th grade written books.  Some are cute and most say nothing of interest with little to no humor.  The illustrations saved the book from drowning in bad reviews.  The pencil drawings bring to life the characters and are more interesting than the written words. Teachers can use the book to teach early days of writing.  Recommended
