Overview
Celebrate the 100th Day of School with this kid-and teacher-favorite from award-winning author Lester Laminack! Jake and his fellow students are getting ready for a celebration. Tomorrow is the 100th day of school and everyone is going to share their collections of 100 things. The day of the celebration arrives, but Jake forgets the 100 family pictures he has glued into a special memory book at home. Disaster!
