ys Stories From Wayside School by Louis Sachar
This is a novel written about a school built sideways that turned out 30 stories tall. The novel has 30 chapters where each tells the story about another child in the school. While each story is every different from the next, Sachar carries many common characters throughout the whole novel. The chapters are whimsical, silly, and short. Children should find this book relatable to their own lives because the novels is set in a school and some of the stories deal with real things such as a teacher who is too mean and bullies. Sachar makes each story interesting and funny by using puns and play on words that children would enjoy reading over again to see the second meanings. While the stories are often hilarious and goofy, they do carry meaning and good values that readers will take from them.
Intended Ages: 7-11
