Review "Rejoice! 25 years later, Wayside School is still in session, and the children in Mrs. Jewls' 30thfloor classroom haven't changed a bit."Kirkus Reviews (starred review)"Sachar's return to Wayside continues the same sidesplitting formula, but a little added polish, overall cohesion, and character development may make this one the best of the bunch. An unbeatable readaloud option for early middlegrade audiences."Booklist"Sachar's snappy comedic stride doesn't miss a beat in his series' fourth installmentthe first since 1995's Wayside School Gets a Little Strangeras the curiosities of Mrs. Jewls's 30thfloor classroom multiply more quickly than ever... Into the regaling levity, Sachar characteristically slips worthy nuggets about the rewards of kindness and friendship."Publishers Weekly (starred review)"Even with more of a traditional throughline, this book maintains the chaotic sense of randomness that was so appealing in earlier volumes. And there are still plenty of puns ("spaghetti and feetballs" is served in the cafeteria), pileups (that skateboard left on the stairs will come into play) and jabs at educators (like the implication that anytime a teacher asks a student to write a word on the board it's because the teacher doesn't know how to spell it), with that touch of Dadaesque lunacy that "Wayside" veterans have come to expect."New York Times Book Review"With its gonzo humor, nonsensical non sequiturs, and mysterious mustachioed grownups, Wayside School fans should eat this up (spaghetti and feetballs, anyone?)."Horn Book Magazine"After 40 years, Wayside School is still a delight. It still tickles the funny bone with the most ridiculous scenarios."School Library Journal Product Description For the first time in twentyfive years, Wayside School is back in session in this brandnew, fourth installment in the perennially beloved and bestselling series by Newbery Medalwinning author Louis Sachar.
