BIg Nate series

Sixth-grader Nate heads for school dreading a social studies test. If he fails, it could mean summer school. When his best friend gives him a fortune cookie before school and the fortune says "You will surpass all others" 

Nate is inspired; will he surpass everyone in soccer, or cartooning, or table football? But the cookie leads to his first detention slip of the day for eating in class, and by lunchtime he is desperate to make his fortune come true -- by setting a world record for eating the most green beans. 

That earns him another detention slip, but Nate can't seem to stop himself from goofing around,  trying to impress the girl he likes, and the endlessly grouchy teachers are happy to keep handing him more detention...
