I read Wayside School is Falling Down by Louis Sachar. It is about a really interesting (and strange) school called Wayside School. Miss Zarves teaches on the nineteenth floor, but there isn't a nineteenth floor and there's no Miss Zarves. This book is about all the 26 kids in Miss Jewls's class, which is on the 30th floor. There are 3 Erics in Miss Jewls's class and there is a new kid. The new kid is called Benjamin Nushmutt but everyone calls him Mark Miller, for some reason. There is a yard teacher called Louis but he isn't that strange. In fact, he is almost normal.
I think it is really strange that Benjamin Nushmutt is called Mark Miller by so many people. Where did they get the name Mark Miller? And WHY are Miss Zarves's students the opposite of things? In the end there is a tornado and Wayside school gets filled with cows. How come Wayside School gets filled with cows? Where did the cows come from? Were they black and white cows or brown and white cows or only white cows?

Do you like this book?
Hi Blueycheese!
I have read a few of the Wayside books before and they are funny but hard to follow sometimes! I think maybe the author thought, "How could I make this a little more random?" and then just decided to write whatever crazy idea popped into his head first.
Have you read any other books by Louis Sachar? It would be interesting to see if he continues that writing style throughout all of his books or if he saves all his zany ideas for the Wayside series!
Yes.
Please elaborate a little more on your answers, Cheese. Thanks! :)
