Sideways Stories from Wayside School, by Louis Sachar

age group: 8 and up
rating: 9

This book is perfect for elementary readers. My third grade teacher read this to our class and I loved it. I read it again before rating it, but I still love it. Sideways Stories from Wayside School is fun, creative, clever, and silly.
It's about an elementary school that is mistakingly built 30 stories upward rather than a one story school with 30 classrooms. The students and teachers are different from you and me. Mrs. Gorf can turn children into apples by wiggling her ears and sticking out her tongue. Sharie learns when sleeping, and John reads best when he is upside down.
