This funny chapter book series includes: Sideways Stories from Wayside School Wayside School Is Falling Down Wayside School Gets a Little Stranger And now also Wayside School Beneath the Cloud of Doom , the brand-new, fourth installment in the series, and the first in twenty-five years! Review: Excellent writing! Grandkids wanted it read aloud over and over! - This book has loads of funny events that make kids ( and adults!) think!

Love this series
I read these as a kid and now my 8yr old loves reading the humorous stories as well. The stories are short and sweet. Great for bedtime and kids love all the classroom humor.

As good as I remember
I bought this to read with my 3rd grader who has struggled with reading / comprehension and generally is reluctant to read anything. I had loved this as a child. I talked it up and we dived in together, taking turns reading pages. My plan was for us to read a chapter a day together. Well, he's asked to read at least one to two additional chapters every day because he's enjoying the stories so much and we're almost finished. They're funny enough to get him laughing out loud at points, comprehensible (his estimated lexile level is 420), and he can relate to so many of the characters, as ridiculous as they might seem. He's already asked for the next in the series when we finish this one.

Sideways school recommending from Franziska Hoffmann
I really liked this book because it was really funny. There were many adventures in the book. It felt real as if you were in a real school. It was also always a mystery and a crazy school. It is also has a solution,well... sometimes. It's also great because this book also has a CD to listen to. I think it is good for kids that can't read or can read that well.

よかった！
Holeを読んでとても面白かったので購入しました。まだ洋書初心者なので、これくらい簡単な英語と少なめのページ数だとありがたい。ストーリーも面白くて最後のオチも良かったです。

Livro engraçadinho...
Gostei muito do livro por ser simples, principalmente para quem esta estudando inglês, e precisa de algo para ajudar. Somente as folhas que eu não sabia que pareciam com as de um jornal ou gibi, mas nada que impeça de ler e de aprender com ele. E suas 30 pequenas historias deixam mais facil e não cansa pois vc pode ler um personagem por dia, por exemplo.... :) Ótimo preço, não paguei frete e chegou um mês antes do prazo previsto.
