Cody's father is an F.B.I. agent, he's got a pet emu, and he's an ace on Rollerblades. At least, that's what Cody tells his class on the first day at his new school. Being Super Deluxe Cody is great, until someone throws a skating party. And suddenly, the game may be up!

Grade 3-4?Because he's dreading being the new kid in school, Cody, a quirky, wise-cracking third grader, transforms himself into Super Cody. Nothing is ordinary in his life; he tells everyone he's a world-class skater, that he has a pet emu, and that his father is an FBI agent. But rather than making the transition smoother, his new image only causes embarrassment. He is invited to Holly's skating party, and since he's never really skated, he succeeds in rolling into the girl's bathroom and exiting as a toilet-paper mummy. But thanks to a supportive mother, an understanding teacher, a few kids willing to give him a chance, and a science project, he makes friends. Duffey's characters display a wide variety of realistic emotions, and students will readily identify with them.?Christina Dorr, Calcium Primary School, NY
Gr. 2^-4. When his family moves in the middle of the school year, third-grader Cody decides to start fresh: instead of being ordinary Cody, he's going to be Super Cody. Standing in front of his new class, he announces he's from Alaska instead of Topeka, Kansas, and that he's "smart, supersmart. In fact, a genius." Despite far-fetched claims, he still feels invincible, even though his lie about being a champion skater is about to be tested at a birthday skating party. Duffey brings Cody safely and humorously through his predicament, letting children sympathize with his embarrassment, and as in How to Be Cool in Third Grade , she has written this chapter book with an obvious understanding of the real concerns of eight-and nine-year-olds.
