About the author
Dan Gutman
358 books1,036 followersThe author of over 80 books in a little over a decade of writing, Dan Gutman has written on topics from computers to baseball. Beginning his freelance career as a nonfiction author dealing mostly with sports for adults and young readers, Gutman has concentrated on juvenile fiction since 1995. His most popular titles include the time-travel sports book Honus and Me and its sequels, and a clutch of baseball books, including The Green Monster from Left Field. From hopeful and very youthful presidential candidates to stunt men, nothing is off limits in Gutman's fertile imagination. As he noted on his author Web site, since writing his first novel, They Came from Centerfield, in 1994, he has been hooked on fiction. "It was fun to write, kids loved it, and I discovered how incredibly rewarding it is to take a blank page and turn it into a WORLD."
Gutman was born in New York City in 1955, but moved to Newark, New Jersey the following year and spent his youth there.

Mrs. Lilly Is Silly! + Ms. Beard Is Weird! = Ms. Cuddy Is Nutty!
I personally think Dan Gutman should should... stop with the My Weird School books. Sorry... He's officially out of ideas. I LOVED My Weird School: #1-21 Box Set and My Weird School Daze: #1-12 Box Set ; even a SELECT FEW of the My Weirder School 10 Pack Box Set were good and funny, so I guess this is kind of disappointing. But I didn't expect any better. You can only milk one series for so many years...

This book is about A.J. and his school are making a news crew. You'll love the part when A.J. makes a joke on the bottom of page 56.

A friend chose it for me. It was nice to reread this kids series being way older because the corny humor hit. A tad too repetitive on the jokes at some parts.

Book Review: AJ and his gang are back again in this fun book for kids. Their school Ella Mentry School received a million dollars gift from Mrs. Mentry who used to teach at the school years ago. Now they have to come up with a contest to decide what to do with the money. Some students wanted to spend the money on pizzas, ice cream, candy, racing cars, football team, a skate park or flat-screen TVs. But their teacher Mr. Cooper had a better ideal.
Perfect for reluctant readers. Dan Gutman’s hugely popular My Weird School series has something for everyone. Don’t miss the hilarious adventures of A.J. and the gang. The illustrations by Jim Paillot helps to makes the story even more hilarious. I highly recommend this book.
FTC Disclosure: I received a review copy of this book from HarperCollins in exchange for a fair and honest review. I was not monetarily compensated for my opinion in any way.

Dan Gutman understands young reader’s humor and has created a fantastic book formula to draw in even the most reluctant of readers. The My Weird School series is perfect for students to practice their reading skills with its repetitive yet hysterical narrative and story lines. But don’t mention that part to your kiddos, they might run away in fear they could learn something! A must have collection for any grade school library or classroom!
In this edition the school’s name sake Ms. Ella Mentry has made a generous donation of one million dollars to Ella Mentry School; but how to spend it? Pizza palooza? Infinite ice cream and scores of sweets? Donate the money to a school that doesn’t have a million dollars?? The possibilities are endless and making a decision is challenging but someone has to do something!

November 11, 2016My favorite character in the book is Ms. Cuddy. She is a crazy teacher that came to make a TV studio. She is hired to help with the morning announcements. She wants her schools ratings to go up to pass Dirk school. She tries to make the kids do everything she wants them to do but it doesn't go up it keeps going down.
THe anchors on the announcements are A.j and Andrea. The rest of the kids are helping out with the morning announcements like lighting and makeup. The kids think that Ms. Cuddy is nutty. The genre of the book is a fiction book. This is a series of books called My Weirdest School and this is book two of four. I think that Dan Gutman is a brilliant written.
It took me two weeks to read the great book. It is recommended for kids that like to be entertained. The moral of the story is that you should never give up. The kids try everything to get their ratings up.

One of the better Weirdest and Weird School books that I have read.
Fun story with a competition between two schools involved.

Love the play on words, similar to Amelia Bedelia but not so much of it that the story gets lost.
