If you're into entertaining books, then this is a book for you. Wayside School Is Falling Down is about this 30-story school with a bunch of crazy kids in it. There's just a bunch of scenes and events that will have you cracking up, because of the way the author writes. Every page I read only made me read the next, I wouldn't put it down anywhere.

Why is it a 30-story school? You'll have to find out for yourself. But every since 7th grade, I still remember some parts in the book. “There were these fifth graders, a boy and girl who were eating lunch and the one boy was just talking away. The girl was getting annoyed trying not to listen. But he just kept on talking and talking so she told him to go away with food still in her mouth, because she was trying to eat.” I know it doesn't sound that funny, but that's because I didn't put much detail in it. The way the author writes it, she makes the most normal things seem so funny. You have to read the book to understand what I mean.

When I finished the book I made two other friends read it, just because I loved it so much. They liked it too. “This book is excellently crafted, the way they wrote is spellbinding,” says Anastasia Pleasant. So if you need something to laugh about, I'm telling you, read Wayside School Is Falling Down! You'll break out laughing.
