The students need to do a community service project so Agnes and her friends of the Secret Knock Club decide to arrange a dog show at the local nursing home. Little do they know who all will be involved.

This is a good set-up for the series. Agnes has decided opinions and is bossy but somehow manages to pull it all together with the help of her ex-friend. Agnes learns a lot of lessons about friendship and organizing an event. It was a fun story and I chuckled as I read it.

Almost reminiscent of Junie B. Jones, Louise Bonnett-Rampersaud brings Agnes, a spunky third-grader to life in the pages of this book. Though it is part of a series, the reader is able to understand the plot and read the book as a stand-alone if needed.
Young readers are sure to enjoy Agnes and her quirks, as well as laugh at some misconceptions and just thought process of Agnes, like how she calls yoga, yogurt. It is a good way to show students that they can have an impact on the world. While it may not seem like third graders can do much, the third graders in The Secret Knock Club show the audience how, when you put your mind to it, you can make a difference and improve the lives of those around you.
Great message, plus plenty of humor, makes for a great book for young readers looking to get into a new series.

I had no particular feelings toward this book as I was reading and rereading it. The book is a very simple informational book that helps young readers understand how different animals construct homes or sleep at night/day. In this book an unknown narrator asks each animal how it is they sleep. That animal proceeds to explain how they sleep: “I gather some twigs, and branches and leaves, and snuggle, snuggle down in the cool, cool breeze.” The author really likes to use words twice in a row as such to emphasize the importance of certain parts in the reading. Everything in the book is written in a simple way so that young learners would be able to grasp each concept and understand it. The book could also be a useful tool to students who are English Language Learners. The language in the book is very easy and would also be useful in helping young readers identify sight words and practice fluency. The artwork in the book was very classic. The feel it gave was almost familiar, as if you had seen the animals on your grandmother’s quilt or art that is hanging in the public bathroom. I thought that the art did a good job of adding familiarity to the story as well as supplement the information that is being given. Finally, I liked the ending of the book, which was very heartwarming. The last “animals” that are questioned by the narrator how they like to sleep, are children just like the audience the book is targeted towards. Although this book did what it was purposed to do, it had no impact and was unmemorable.… (mehr)

This would be a good book to read to a young class before nap time. It describes how and where different animals sleep. It could also go along with a science lesson about the different sleeping patterns or ways of animals at a very basic level. I thought the book was cute.
