    • 4/5
      This is a very cute book! A variety of age groups would love this book because of its lighthearted nature and silly context. The story is about a school whose principal offers to throw a chocolate party if they do 1 million math problems. They are successful at completing all of the problems so the school gets their chocolate party. The principal then offers other rewards that progressively get crazier. When this continues the kids conclude that he is nuts!

      This is a funny book about a second grade class. When their principal offers to throw a chocolate party for the school if they do 1 million math problems, the kids start doing math like crazy. (Wouldn't you?) After the chocolate party, the rewards get progressively more extreme until the kids decide that Mr. Klutz is nuts!This book has nice short chapters that are perfect for pre-bedtime reading. My first grade son laughed out loud at some of Mr. Klutz's antics. We've already gotten three more books in the series. I love finding a good new series for him!

    My Weird School #2 - Dan Gutman

    1

    The Flying Principal

    Watch out! somebody screamed.

    Mr. Klutz, the principal of my school, was tearing down the sidewalk on a skateboard! It was early morning, just before the school bell was about to ring.

    Mr. Klutz must have built up too much speed coming down the hill. He was weaving in and around the kids and their parents, totally out of control. Most principals are really serious and dignified. They look like they were born as grown-ups! But not Mr. Klutz. He’s more like a grown-up kid. When he isn’t skateboarding to school, he rides his motorcycle, his scooter, or wears his in-line skates.

    Runaway principal! some kid shouted. Run for your lives!

    The skateboard must have hit a crack in the sidewalk, because the next thing anybody knew, Mr. Klutz was flying through the air like a superhero. Kids and their parents were diving out of his way. Dogs were running in all directions.

    Mr. Klutz crash-landed in the bushes at the front of the school. Luckily he was wearing a helmet, and he had knee pads and elbow pads on over his clothes. Everybody stopped for a second, because Mr. Klutz was just lying there in the bushes without moving. We weren’t sure if he was alive.

    Good morning, Mr. Klutz, said Mrs. Cooney, the school nurse, as she walked past.

    Good morning, Mrs. Cooney, he replied.

    Beautiful day, isn’t it?

    Lovely.

    Then Mr. Klutz got up, brushed himself off, and walked up the front steps, like it was totally normal for a principal to skateboard to school and crash headfirst into the bushes.

    Mr. Klutz is nuts!

    Big Trouble

    That’s the last straw, A.J., my teacher, Miss Daisy, told me. I want you to go to the principal’s office!

    I didn’t do anything! I protested.

    My name is A.J. and I hate school. Why do we have to learn so much stuff? If you ask me, by the time you get to second grade you already know enough stuff to last you a lifetime. School is way overrated.

    My mom says that all eight-year-old boys have to go to school, so I guess there’s nothing I can do about it. But when I grow up, I’m going to be a professional hockey player. You don’t have to know how to read or write or
