From Publishers Weekly
Revolving around the substitute teachers that the students of this zany school must endure, the 30 stories here will delight devotees of the Wayside School; according to PW, Sachar's supply of plot twists and plays on words are "inexhaustible." Ages 8-12.

Aren't we glad its getting stranger. This series is enjoyed by elementary school age (and their parents, who may fight the kids for the first read). Trapped voices get returned - even to Scotland; Santa Claus is proved to be real; and Louis the yard teacher becomes fist a villain and then a romantic hero.

Back Cover:
Before you enter Wayside School, you should know that it's a thirty-story building with one classsroom on each floor. Mrs. Jewel teaches the class on the thirtieth story. Miss Zarves teaches the class on the nineteenth story - except there is no nineteenth story., so there is no Miss Zarves. Understand? Good. Explain it to Calvin.

All the kids from Wayside School had to spend 243 days in horrible schools while Wayside was closed to get rid of the cows {Don't ask!). Now the kids are back and the fun begins again on every floor. Miss Mush has prepared a special lunch of baked liver in purple sauce, and it's Pet Day on the 30th floorwith dogs and cats and frogs and skunks and pigs, and an orange named Fido causing a terrible commotion. In Mrs. Drazil's class, they're throwing a coffeepot, a sack of potatoes, a pencil sharpener, and a light bulb out the window to see which hits the ground first. But the big surprise is Mrs. Jewls is expecting a babybut one named Cootie Face or Bucket Head"and a substitute teacher is comingand everyone knows what that means...
