School Is A Nightmare #1 First Week, Worst Week

School is a Nightmare #1

by Raymond Bean

Justin's last few days of summer are quickly vanishing. His mom is in full blown back to school mode, and he can’t do anything to stop it. Over the final forty eight hours of summer he’s been dragged shopping for shoes, clothes, and worst all, school supplies.

The first three days of school only get worse when he loses his pet snake, all the money in his savings account, and nearly his own life.

Oh, and he has the meanest teacher in the whole school, Mrs. Cliff. She’s been around so long she taught his dad when he was a kid. The thought of spending a whole school year in her class makes him want to hop the first bus to Canada. Unfortunately, he can’t afford a bus ticket to Canada, so he’ll just have to suck it up.

AMAZING !! My son just read this book cover to cover and couldn't put it down, he was laughing out loud the entire time. He cannot say enough about it. It is hard these days to find something that captures kids attention without being electronic but Raymond bean has done it :) Can't wait to read the next in the series. Thank you for a incredible book !

This will be a great read aloud for the first week of school.

This is a Middle-Grade book that many kids who would rather be anywhere than school can relate to. The problem with it is that there was never any resolution to Justin's, the main character, problem. This book is the first in a series, so maybe there is an overall climax to all of the stories, but just reviewing book #1 I can't give it a high praise. It is, however, a quick read as promised in the synopsis. Overall 2/5 stars.

This is a very short, rather funny story about a boy who does not like school and has a difficult first week of the new school year. Enjoyable for what it is but not anything great to write home about either.
