From Charlie's point of view

I'm going to be giving you summary's about a book i have been reading called From Charlie's Point Of View by Richard Scrimger.

It's Bernadette Lyall's and charlie Fairmile's first day in the seventh grade of  at a new school, Schuyler Colfax Middle School. Charlie is blind and Bernadette helps him everywhere. They have been best friends since kindergarten.  At their new school this year, they get the cool teacher, Mr. Floyd. He tells everyone to find themselves a seat. Bernadette finds charlie and her self a seat by the door. One of the student's in the class named Lewis is really eager for this year because they have the new cool teacher for the whole year and mostly because he won't be sitting next to the bully the year. Lewis takes his seat and is saying to himself finally i don't have to sit next to the bully this year, until frank the bully sits in the seat beside him! Mrs. Vox the principle of the school made an announcement to the school to stand for the national anthem and morning announcements. On the morning announcements Mrs. Vox told everyone to accept Charlie as normal and not to treat him differently because he is visually impaired. Five minutes later it was nine o'clock and school has officially started!!  Gideon, the weird kid who looks like he should be in grade three came in late and Mr. Floyd got mad at him.  What happened next was unbelievable! Gideon made the clock go back 5 minutes just by looking at it!  And nobody even knew.

Tune in next week to hear what happens next!
