在這本書中，Jake回憶他在三年級時，如何因為代課老師Miss Bruuce而成為自己認為的「班級小丑物」，最後他如何在老師的幫助之下讓一切回復正常呢？你是否也曾經有過類似的經驗呢？
作者Andrew Clements筆下的Jake Drank是個四年級的小男生，而這幾本以Jake的主角的書則是描寫他在學校裏所發生的事，每一本書均有一個特定主題，是大部的孩子在學校可能會碰到的問題。適合6歲以上兒童閱讀或是家長及老師閱讀。
In previous books, Jake has been an unwilling "teacher's pet," a "bully buster," and a "know-it-all," and now he finds himself becoming the class clown. Clements focuses on real-life school problems that plague kids in classrooms everywhere and utilizes humor to make them surmountable and fixable. Here, the fourth grader looks back to second grade when his unsmiling, grumpy student teacher terrifies his classroom. He then becomes too funny for his own good. Jake is an endearing boy who uses his head to sort out appropriate conclusions to bad situations. The characters are well drawn and likable; one rather static full-page black-and-white illustration appears in each chapter. Another winner in the "Jake Drake" series.
