    I really liked the book. My least character was Victoria she was so rude. Because she has her own posse that follows her around and agrees with everything she says. And you have to give her gifts to be her friend. Other than that I really enjoyed reading this book

    1. I agree...my least favorite character in the book was Victoria! She is not a very nice person and tries to control her friends! I really didn't like what she did to Quinny's watermelon hair clip! Very glad that Quinny realizes what she is like.

  2. ****Great! I really enjoyed this book. It made me laugh out loud on several places. Quinny moves from New York City to a quiet town called Whisper Valley. She becomes friends with Hopper, a boy also going into 3rd grade that lives next door. I love all the things they try to catch the chicken, Freya. In what ways do Quinny and Hopper help each other in the book?

  3. *****I loved it
    I loved the book, other than Victoria because she's a bully who takes control of people. I love Quinny she had to be my favorite because she was loud, humorous and creative. I liked Hopper for many reasons like how he changed in the book by Quinny. Read this book if you want to have a humorous and jolly time......maybe.

    This was a good book, and as everyone was saying, Victoria was SO rude! Hopper was my favorite character though. I can really relate to him and how he feels. I am like Hopper (only I am a girl!). P.S my favorite character might not be Hopper, it could MAYBE be Freya, I enjoyed all her silly chases between the kids.

    i liked this book because it was funny.They kept trying to catch the chicken and i loved Quinny. The reason why i liked Quinny was because she was super funny and i liked her personality. And her and hopper are really good friends.

  6. ****great When Quinny moved, she made friends with Hopper. He lived next door to her. It was funny when they tried to catch Freya. Victoria was not a sweet girl and would not be a good friend. I really liked Quinny.

    I enjoyed the book Quinny and Hopper because the two kids are so different.One thing I found interesting was that for part of the book Victoria was kind of being mean to Quinny. I would rcomend this book to a friend because it shows you that you don't have to be part of the crowd.

    My favirote part of the book was in the begining when Quinny kicked the socer ball out of the bully twins hands and she broke the vase.I think the lesson was that you should never give up even if it is hard. I recomend this book

  25. I like the it because when Quincy mom got a new job so they had to move. Then when they got there Quincy got her staff she went to her room and she said "there is nothing to do here and that is good that I don't have to share a room with my sister and I wish that we haven't even move her in the first place" the she be came friends with hopper. Quincy lived right next to her. My favorite was Quincy . I think people should read this book because it is a great book.

    I really enjoyed this book because it was very humorous. Quinny meets a new friend Hopper and tries to help the ' zebra chicken ' Freya. I would recommend this book to a friend.

    I liked this book because it was narrated by 2 different people and was funny. Quinny has to move out of New York to go to a small town. She meets a friend named Hopper who is the opposite of her. When they try to catch a chicken, Freya, she always runs away. Plus, 3rd grade is apparently different than 2nd. I would recommend this book to everyone.
