Schooled by Gordan Korman is just such a book. 13-year-old Capricorn has grown up with his grandmother Rain on a hippie compound called Garland. When Rain falls out of a tree and lands in the hospital, Capricorn – Cap for short – needs a place to stay. He finds a room with a social services worker called Mrs. Donnelly, who happens to have grown up in Garland and spends the rest of the book privately reminiscing about the horrible time she had there, even describing it as a cult. Meanwhile, Cap goes to the local public school, where he promptly gets chosen school president so that everyone can make fun of him when he inevitably fails. But of course, he doesn’t fail. Instead, when he leaves, the entire school is changed for the better and misses him. And then, seeing Cap needs school and friends, Rain decides to give up their farm, go live in the city, let Cap go to school, and let him watch reality shows because he needs a normal childhood. So the theme is that this kid Cap has been raised alone by his grandma for 13 years in this cult-like society secluded from civilization. Well it's not really a cult anymore because it's just Cap and his grandma living as mentioned in the story "in the 60s". I also feel as if this book required no research whatsoever. If the author had done his work, he would have found that homeschoolers are socially more advanced than their peers. If he had done his work, maybe Cap would probably not have been a liberal pantheist but a conservative monotheist. As it is, the author doesn’t seem to have needed more than a vague knowledge of what homeschoolers are about to write this book. All of the information on what hippies did and believed was common knowledge, and I’m assuming the author got all his information about high school from his own younger years. This is just a very low-effort “what if?” story that rehashes old, dusty stereotypes and neglects to step out of any proverbial boxes.

These days it's getting harder and harder to find good books from great authors beyond the usual Young Adult shelf that's been flooding the market. So stuff happens and Cap goes to middle school and enter society for the first time. So almost every character is an idiot, a stereotype, and an asshole all at the same time. In addition the story isn't even enjoyable because Cap continuously gets bullied throughout the whole story so it's depressing as hell.

It’s a situational comedy that really kept me laughing. Ok, first off I'm a home schooled, so I was immediately mistrustful of this book. But Gordon Korman is one of favorite authors, so I gave it a try. It was insulting. It played off of every stereotype of homeschoolers!

Have you ever wanted to look for book titles under a particular genre or topic and had a hard finding an exciting book for it? When we search for a book topic on Google,This is one of the more enjoyable books I've read in a while, and it's one I think Jr. High kids will love. I hope I can sell it to my secondary kids, becaues it's definitely worth reading and provides a great platform to discuss bullying, cruelty, cliques, and stereotyping. The only problem is that the narrative is centered on younger kids, so they may feel like it's too immature for them. Don’t forget to claim child benefit. You must put in a claim within three months of the birth for it to be paid from the date of birth. Buttwipe wanted to know what jerkface was looking at."

For my December book project, I chose the book, schooled, from a list of a variety of different books. I had absolutely no idea what the book was about until I actually got it, and it turned out a whole lot better than I thought it would be. Schooled is basically about a thirteen-year-old hippie who goes to a public school for the first time after being home-schooled by his grandmother until she's sent to the hospital due to a bad fall. But, when Capricorn Anderson(Cap) joins the new school, almost everyone there torments him and tries to break him so that he'll stop being SO nice. But, that all stops once everyone realizes that Cap is a much better person than the rest of them. So, everyone else begins to appreciate Cap as they try to become more like him.The main character of the book is Cap, who is a hippy who's been raised on a farm, homeschooled by his grandma, and has never watched TV or eaten pizza. An accident throws him into the public school system and he is ridiculed for his odd habits including Yoga and hand-made clothes. Slowly but surely Cap is transformed (mostly due to the power of bullying) into a "normal" kid who goes to school and is popular with everyone because of his amazing talents. If you work in a LA-maintained foundation or voluntary aided school, your employer is the school governing body. Your contract of employment will, other than in a very small number of cases, include the Burgundy Book scheme. To qualify for occupational maternity pay in the Burgundy Book, your workplace must be covered by the Burgundy Book and you must have been employed for at least one year and 11 weeks with one or more local authority by the expected week of childbirth.
