Review: Wayside School is Falling Down by D18: Do you like funny stories about school? How about books on zany teachers? If your answer is "yes" then this is totally the book for you! With 30 wacky stories, Wayside School is Falling Down, by Louis Sacher, is one of those `hard-to-put-down' books. The story all starts when the architect who built the school built it with 30 classrooms on top of each other instead of side-by-side. If you think that's a weird beginning, try imagining a teacher teaching her class to make pickles, a girl who saves a boy's life by pulling him in through a 30th story window by the girl's pigtails, and a class where nobody is weird because nobody's normal! With fantasy as its genre, Wayside School is Falling Down not only includes all those and more, but is a great book for comedy-lovers of all ages!
