Everyday is an adventure for A.J. and the gang. Now your favorite holiday hijinks are available in a single audio collection, perfect for My Weird School fans!
"BACK TO SCHOOL, WEIRD KIDS RULE!"
Summer is almost over and you know what that means - time to head back to school! But when a tropical storm ends A.J.'s vacation earlier than expected, he and his family have to stay at Andrea's house. Ugh, disgusting!
Soon after, everyone in the house starts to get cabin fever, and even back-to-school shopping won't calm the kids down. So, Andrea and A.J. are sent to Camp Ockatollyquay. The catch? It's a camp to get kids read for school! But not to worry - Andrea and A.J. rally their Ella Mentry School friends to end their summer on a note they'll never forget.
"IT'S HALLOWEEN, I'M TURNING GREEN!"
It's Halloween, and you know what that means! Candy! Costumes! More candy! What would happen if a kid ate a million hundred pounds of chocolate in one night? One thing's for sure - when the kids from Ella Mentry School go trick-or-treating, it will be a Halloween to remember.
"DECK THE HALLS, WE'RE OFF THE WALLS!"
It's Christmas, and you know what that means! Santa Claus is coming to town! Or at least to the local mall. But what happens when kid rapper Cray-Z gives a Christmas concert at the same mall and all his fans go bananas? One thing's for sure - if A.J. and the gang from Ella Mentry School want to save the day, they will need a Christmas miracle.
"OH, VALENTINE, WE'VE LOST OUR MINDS!"
It's the week of Valentine's Day, and A.J.'s class is getting a foreign exchange student! His name is Pierre, and he's from France. But what happens when Pierre challenges A.J. to a duel (or at least a thumb war) over Andrea? One thing's for sure: when L-O-V-E comes to Ella Mentry, it spells the weirdest Valentine's day story in the history of the world!
BUNNY DOUBLE, WE'RE IN TROUBLE!"
Hip, hop, hooray! It's Easter, and this year mayor Hubble is hosting an Easter egg roll and a special egg hunt at the mayor's mansion. And A.J. and the gang are invited! But when Mayor Hubble reveals that the prize golden egg has a thousand dollars inside it, the egg hunt becomes a wacky free-for-all with a photo finish.
"BUMMER IN THE SUMMER!"
School's almost out for the summer, and A.J. is dreaming about all the fun things he's going to do on vacation.
But A.J.'s dream quickly turns into a nightmare when three familiar spirits appear to show him summers past, present, and yet to come. Will they be able to convince him to leave his bad ways behind? Or will this summer end up being a total bummer?
The 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.
As a 32 year old man I know i am very not the target audience of the book. I was confused alot of this book as third graders (?) have weird quirks and even stranger adults. Like a fairly normal story that randomly ends with a teacher inventing a mass changer a la willy wonka, Weird but i have read Goosebump stories with better plots.
