I read this book about a thousand times on one of the school kindle, it is the first Hank Zipper I ever read, its pretty good. Its about this guy called Hank Zipper and he is a guy who always forgets and he doesn't have much knoledge in his brain, so the first problem was that on that friday he was going to go to a field trip on a boat except tied to shore! But then, he forgot his permission slip. The second problem is that he and this guy Collin was suppose to practice tying knots, so Collin was reading the instructions and Hank was figuring out what to do but Hank didn't understand the instructions but he didn't tell Collin because he didn't want to get embarresd so when Collin got cold and went to get his jacket Hank went to some other knot and quickly tried to tie that knot but he kept on messing up and he couldn't put it the way back so he just let it there. At night Hank woke up and figured they weren't tied to the shore anymore and he remembered what he did at day time.... This experience gave Hank a great chance to be a leader.
