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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Books\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nSince 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll 21 original My Weird School chapter books by Dan Gutman in one paperback collection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShort chapters and simple vocabulary designed to build reading confidence in ages 6-9\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIllustrated throughout by Jim Paillot with fun, expressive black-and-white artwork\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA humor-driven series that keeps even reluctant readers engaged and eager for the next book\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal for classroom libraries, independent reading, or family read-aloud time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA great gift for birthdays, holidays, or back-to-school reading motivation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook-by-Book Guide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nMiss Daisy Is Crazy! — The book that launched the series, introducing A.J. and his classmates to their first delightfully odd teacher at Ella Mentry School.\u003cbr\u003e\nMr. Klutz Is Nuts! — A.J. and his friends turn their attention to their unusual principal, Mr. Klutz, in this early entry in the series.\u003cbr\u003e\nMrs. Roopy Is Loopy! — The class gets to know their eccentric librarian, Mrs. Roopy, in another silly school-day adventure.\u003cbr\u003e\nMs. Hannah Is Bananas! — A.J.'s gym teacher, Ms. Hannah, takes center stage in this energetic, laugh-filled installment.\u003cbr\u003e\nMiss Small Is off the Wall! — The class's art teacher, Miss Small, brings her own brand of weirdness to Ella Mentry School.\u003cbr\u003e\nMr. Hynde Is Out of His Mind! — Science class gets a lot stranger once the class meets their offbeat teacher, Mr. Hynde.\u003cbr\u003e\nMrs. Cooney Is Loony! — The school's cafeteria worker, Mrs. Cooney, becomes the focus of A.J.'s latest wacky theory.\u003cbr\u003e\nMs. LaGrange Is Strange! — A.J. and the gang set their sights on the school nurse, Ms. LaGrange, in this quirky entry.\u003cbr\u003e\nMiss Lazar Is Bizarre! — The music teacher, Miss Lazar, gives the class plenty to talk (and laugh) about in this installment.\u003cbr\u003e\nMr. Docker Is off His Rocker! — The class's bus driver, Mr. Docker, takes them on a bumpy, funny ride in this story.\u003cbr\u003e\nMrs. Kormel Is Not Normal! — A substitute teacher, Mrs. Kormel, shakes up the usual routine at Ella Mentry School.\u003cbr\u003e\nMs. Todd Is Odd! — The class's computer teacher, Ms. Todd, has A.J. convinced something odd is going on.\u003cbr\u003e\nMrs. Patty Is Batty! — The school secretary, Mrs. Patty, becomes the subject of A.J.'s newest investigation.\u003cbr\u003e\nMiss Holly Is Too Jolly! — A relentlessly cheerful substitute teacher, Miss Holly, puts A.J.'s patience to a funny test.\u003cbr\u003e\nMr. Macky Is Wacky! — The school custodian, Mr. Macky, finds himself at the center of a hilarious school mystery.\u003cbr\u003e\nMs. Coco Is Loco! — A drama teacher, Ms. Coco, brings big personality and bigger laughs to this entry.\u003cbr\u003e\nMiss Suki Is Kooky! — A visiting instructor, Miss Suki, turns an ordinary class activity into a chaotic adventure.\u003cbr\u003e\nMrs. Yonkers Is Bonkers! — A.J. and his classmates meet another unforgettable teacher, Mrs. Yonkers, in this funny tale.\u003cbr\u003e\nDr. Carbles Is Losing His Marbles! — The school superintendent, Dr. Carbles, pays a visit that quickly spirals into chaos.\u003cbr\u003e\nMr. Louie Is Screwy! — A visiting handyman, Mr. Louie, has the class wondering what's really going on at their school.\u003cbr\u003e\nMs. Krup Cracks Me Up! — A later entry in the series brings a new teacher, Ms. Krup, and her own brand of silliness to Ella Mentry School.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nDan Gutman is the author of the My Weird School series, along with other popular series for young readers including The Genius Files and the Baseball Card Adventure books.
