Reach for this book when your child starts complaining that school is a chore or if they are feeling uninspired by their reading assignments. It is a perfect remedy for the mid-year slump, offering a hilariously absurd look at a school where the adults are even more eccentric than the kids. The story follows A.J., a self-proclaimed school-hater, and his classmates as they witness their principal, Mr. Klutz, perform increasingly wild stunts to motivate them to reach their reading goals. While the humor is slapstick and zany, the underlying emotional themes celebrate the joy of collective achievement and the importance of a supportive school community. It is ideally suited for early elementary readers (ages 6 to 10) who are transitioning into independent chapter books. Parents will appreciate how the story validates a child's occasional skepticism about school while ultimately portraying the learning environment as a place of wonder, humor, and shared success.
