Wayside School
“Watch closely,” said Mrs. Jewls. “You can learn much faster using a computer instead of paper and pencil.” Then she pushed the new computer out the window The children all watched it fall thirty floors and smash against the sidewalk. “See?” said Mrs. Jewls. “That’s gravity! I’ve been trying to teach you about gravity, but the computer showed you a lot quicker!”
That’s the way things happen at Wayside School. There are 29 kids in Mrs. Jewls’s class and this book is about all of them. There is Todd, who got in trouble every day … until he got a magic dog; Paul, whose life was saved by Leslie’s pigtails; Ron, who dared to try the cafeteria’s Mushroom Surprise and all the others who help turn a day at Wayside School into one madcap adventure after another.
