101 ways to bug your teacher



101 Ways to Bug Your Teacher


By: Lee Wardlaw


We recommend this book to find out how to bug your teacher!!! This book is about when Steve “sneeze” Wyatt is proud to be known for his fabulous inventions, but, unfortunately, that also the reason that his parents have decided that he will skip a grade and leave all of his friends behind in junior high! There’s no way the resourceful Sneeze is going to let that happen. He’s on a mission to think of 101 sure- fire ways to get under his teachers skin……and fast. And not even a worrisome case of inventors block or fear of his history teacher Mrs. “Fierce” Pierce will deter him from his clever plan! Read to find out what happens to Sneeze.

The Paper Doorway

The Paper Doorway

Written By: Dean Koontz

Illustrated By: Phil Parks

We think The Paper Doorway is a good book because of all the funny poems. Here is our favorite funny verse and nothing worse poem! This poem is Franken bunny! Here it is….

Franken bunny

Thunder! Wonder! Motion and commotion! In the castle tower, The monster-maker works. At this hour, Some evil beastie lurks. Motion! Commotion! Freighting! Lighting! Lying on the table, Made of bunny pieces, It is not yet able, to unfold its creases. Oh, the windy wind! Oh, the rainy rain! The creature is crumpled, It’s gnarled and rumpled Strange stitches in it’s head. Thunder crash! Lighting smash! Organ music! Gloomy tunes! Now it leaps to its feet. Snarling, growling, and groaning. With a tail twitch quite neat, It stalks the night, moaning. Franken bunny! Franken bunny! Not a sunny little bunny! Though its tail is waggage, It has the urge to kill. Wants to kill a cabbage-I’m sure it surely will. Franken bunny on the lose VEGTABLES BEWARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


That was our favorite funny verse and nothing worse poem. If you liked this poem you surely like the book. We picked it because of Easter.

Greg's journal entry reads, "I do feel a little bad, because it looked like it was gonna take a long time to clean up. But on the bright side, Gramma is retired, so she probably didn't have anything planned for today anyway.”

Illustrated by: Gary Houland


If you like to read how presidents lived in the white house and pictures of big headed people, this is the book for you. It has all the presidents and plus their family. Now we are going to tell you the presidents and a fact. George Washington never lived in the white house. John Adam and his wife moved in the white house in 1800.

James Monroe moved in with his family even though the white house was still being worked on. When John Quincy Adams the grounds of the white house were open to public. Andrew Jackson had an open house at the white house 20,000 people showed up. Martin Van Buren auctioned off furniture that he thought was ugly.

I Can Read With My Eyes Shut

I Can Read With My Eyes Shut


By: Doctor Seuss




We recommend this book. Here are some parts we like: where he can read upside down, in pickle color, and Mississippi. This book will tickle your funny bone and will make you laugh your socks off! We think this book will stick with you until you memorize it. Here are two pages from this story: there are SO many things you can learn about. BUT…you’ll miss the best things if you keep your eyes shut. So the more that you read, the more that you know, the more that you learn the more places you’ll go! If you read with your eyes shut tight you’re likely to find the place that your going is FAR FAR behind. So make sure you know, never read with your EYES SHUT TIGHT!!!!!!

Wayside School is Falling Down

I would like to recommend this book to people who like to laugh… a lot. This book is about a bunch of tales about Mrs. Jewls class, who are on the top story of Wayside School. A yard teacher delivers a heavy package to the top floor (Mrs. Jewls class) when Mrs. Jewls is teaching gravity, so when the package gets there, Mrs. Jewls opens it up, and it is a computer. The whole class moans, and one student says, “We hate computers, they make us learn faster.” She tells the yard teacher to put it on the counter. Mrs. Jewls pushes it off as the whole class watches, “And that is how gravity works,” says Mrs. Jewls proudly. “We get it,” says the whole class. Computers are much faster then pencil and paper!
