In this second in a series of humorous multicultural books, Charlie Chameleon and his friends are having trouble with Boris Bunny, the class bully. Charlie thinks Boris is putting on an act, but his friends disagree. Follow Charlie’s adventures as he helps Boris learn how to be a friend. Fans of the Arthur the Aardvark series will enjoy the antics of the characters in The Adventures of Charlie Chameleon: School Days. Even bullies can be bullied—who knew!
Children love reading about the relatable, colorful characters and trying out the activities at the end of each chapter. Many have recommended School Days “because it is funny” and “every character learns a lesson.”
Each chapter covers situations that most children deal with daily. The Charlie Chameleon series models ways children can cope with changes and offers suggestions for parents to communicate with their children using humor.

Lots of fun with an underlying message

Reviewed in Australia on 12 October 2021

The Adventures of Charlie Chameleon: School Days is a fun book with an underlying message for younger readers. We follow Charlie as he attends school, often in company with his sassy pet fish, Frankie. Charlie and his friend Gary encounter Boris Bunny, who is a bully. As we progress through the book, we see how Charlie’s attitude towards Boris changes, while Boris himself undergoes a transformation.
There are beautiful, expressive illustrations throughout, and entertaining activities at the end of each chapter. An engaging, humorous read that cleverly discusses a serious issue, School Days is a Charlie Chameleon book I can highly recommend to the younger member of your family.

Great Little Story & Activity Book for Children

Reviewed in the United States on 13 July 2021

Verified Purchase

This is a great little book for schoolkids. It begins with a visit to a museum where Charlie learns the class bully is just as afraid as he is. When they both get lost and find each other, they make the smallest connection, one that helps them later. How to relate to bullies is woven subtly into the stories. No preaching, no slogans, but instead examples of the simple steps people can make to form friendships and earn one another’s trust and respect.

Each story is a lot of fun. One ends with a cookie recipe that kids can safely do (no baking). The bully, Boris, says “science is boring,” as he and the others line up for class. The “Fizzy Science” chapter has an easy experiment that can be done in school or at home. By the time the experiment ends, Boris says, “Science is cool.”

The inspired illustrations of Charlie the chameleon with his pet fish, his friend Gary the Gecko, and a bird, rabbit, and ferret, add meaning to the stories. They carry the truth well. Overall, a cool read.

Great book to read to yoiur child and enjoy together.

This whimsical book has a message. While characters like a a chameleon named Charlie and his spunky pet goldfish named Frankie entertain, the underlying message of friendship, value of school and the problem of bullying are there. It even has a "problem" rabbit who changes when befriended. With activities like replicating a class science project, it makes learning enjoyable. It's a good book for a parent or grandparent to read to a child and do the activities together.
