Restart First Chapter Friday || MG Realistic Fiction Read Aloud with the Word Nerd

Описание: Each Friday I share the first chapter of a book perfect for middle school readers. Today's title is one of my favorites I read this summer, a New York Times Bestselling book, with over 6,000 five-star reviews on Amazon. Any guesses? It's Restart by Gordon Korman! Make sure you hang around for the whole video to learn the mystery quote, which will be revealed one word at a time! I’ve also got a little motivation and inspiration waiting for you if you dream of one day being an author!

Book Blurb: Chase's memory just went out the window. Chase doesn't remember falling off the roof. He doesn't remember hitting his head. He doesn't, in fact, remember anything. He wakes up in a hospital room and suddenly has to learn his whole life all over again . . . starting with his own name. He knows he's Chase. But who is Chase? When he gets back to school, he sees that different kids have very different reactions to his return. Some kids treat him like a hero. Some kids are clearly afraid of him. One girl in particular is so angry with him that she pours her frozen yogurt on his head the first chance she gets. Pretty soon, it's not only a question of who Chase is--it's a question of who he was . . . and who he's going to be. From the #1 bestselling author of Swindle and Slacker, Restart is the spectacular story of a kid with a messy past who has to figure out what it means to get a clean start.
