Spring has finally arrived, and for Clementine, this is a really big deal. It is the perfect time to watch the apple tree outside start to bloom and to get ready for the huge third-grade field trip to Plimoth Plantation. Clementine is totally prepared to explore Ye Olden Times. However, she is not so sure she can survive the strict eating rules the fourth graders have created for lunch. They insist on absolute silence, which makes eating crunchy foods extremely difficult. If that is not stressful enough, she also has to survive the mysterious and terrible stink taking over Bus 7. During the trip, a historical pilgrim guide explains why her people made the long journey from England. This makes Clementine think deeply about who creates the rules we follow. You will love tagging along on this chaotic and funny school trip. This engaging chapter book is packed with hilarious observations and unexpected discoveries. Join Clementine as she tries to figure out exactly which rules are important, and which ones are meant to be broken.
