Parker Peterzak loves BIG words! In fact, every time she finds a new word, she jots it down in her Brainiac journal. All summer Parker's been collecting Big words to bring to her new BIG KID school. You see, up until now, Parker has been at a school for little kids. This year she's moving into the third grade at Lane Elementary. But Parker soon finds out that starting a new school isn't as easy as it seems. Will Lane elementary live up to Parker's expectations? Will Parker find a way to fit in at her new school? Or will Parker be stuck with the Big School Blues?
