Overview
The My Weird School 21 Books Collection Set gathers every original title in Dan Gutman's wildly popular chapter book series, all set at the delightfully offbeat Ella Mentry School. Told from the perspective of second grader A.J., each short, funny story introduces a new eccentric teacher, principal, or staff member whose antics turn ordinary school days into laugh-out-loud adventures. Illustrated throughout by Jim Paillot, this paperback set is a favorite for reluctant readers and eager bookworms alike, offering fast-paced, easy-to-follow stories perfect for building reading confidence and independence, one silly chapter at a time.

About the Books
Since the series debuted, Dan Gutman's My Weird School books have become a go-to pick for parents and teachers looking to hook young readers on chapter books. Narrated in A.J.'s distinct, funny voice, each of the 21 stories in this set follows the same tight-knit group of classmates as they navigate a new school year full of quirky adults and unexpected mischief. From a principal who might secretly be a genius to a lunch lady whose behavior sparks classroom rumors, every title puts a different member of the Ella Mentry School staff in the spotlight, giving young readers a fresh, funny mystery to dig into with every book. The short chapters, large print, and simple vocabulary make these stories especially approachable for readers just moving into chapter books, while the constant humor keeps even reluctant readers turning pages. Jim Paillot's black-and-white illustrations appear throughout, breaking up the text and adding extra visual jokes that bring A.J.'s exaggerated descriptions of his teachers to life. Though each book stands on its own, familiar characters and settings carry through the whole series, letting kids build a comforting sense of familiarity with Ella Mentry School as the collection continues. Together, the 21 books in this set offer hours of engaging, age-appropriate reading, making it an easy way to keep young readers entertained and motivated long after the last page of any single book is turned.
