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.
It's an end of an era. A.J. and his 3rd grade pals and classmates are graduating, and moving on into the 4th grade. That doesn't mean the puns, corny-jokes and mis-adventures are coming to an end. This tale is just as zany featuring a rapper known as Lil Mouse who is asked to come and perform at the graduation, and of all things a cliff-hanger to start them off in the 4th grade.
This story is like a million hundred times fun, it’s just plain silly! It’s perfect for keeping young children interested! And, it’s totally relatable for kids it has rappers, 3rd grade graduation, and kids who exhibit various behaviors.
We enjoy these books. The repetition in each is fun and stumbles into our own family joked like when someone "walks into the door." We call these the "AJ books" and I'm glad to have memories of reading them together with my kids.
When I was younger I LOVED this series of books! It was one of the only series’s I would read. I was bored so I Decided to read one again and this is still an amazing book 😂 I laughed out loud at least 50 times. I definitely recommend that every kid should read this.
