Jeff, Matt, and their friends are delighted when their strict fifth-grade teacher, Mr. Manlin, is replaced by a series of gullible substitutes, until the arrival of the infamous Ms. Wilder, who soon has them yearning for the good old days of Mr. Manlin. Original.
Loved how I felt transformed back into 5th grade with all the shenanigans Pretty basic story though and ended abruptly Bonus points for October setting/Halloween Would make a GREAT kids movie
I use this as a read aloud with my 4th graders and they love it. Engages even the most reluctant readers. Lots of fun and they beg for copies when I'm done.
