Rotten School, Beastly fun!

Bernie Bridges tells the story in #13 of the Rotten School series by R.L. Stine. A 4th grader in this co-ed boarding school, Bernie wants to win Most Popular Student and have his photo printed in the yearbook. The cake has to do with the birthday party he tries to get his friends to hold for him (even though it is not his birthday). You won't have to do much promoting to get this series of books in the hands of your (especially boy) students. The print is large and enticing, the chapters are short and filled with situations that are everyday occurrences for kids (The Stomp Game), characters with names like Leif Blower, April-May June and Mr. Pupipantz, and the eyeball-rolling gross humor that keeps kids hooked. Absolutely essential are the B & W drawings of Trip Park, which interpret the text to the nth degree. Let your students chow down on perfect English, grammar, punctuation and writing style without torture. For a change they'll be reading (and getting what's good for them) for fun.

Rotten School

RL Stine has done it again with this book series. Rotten School books are an excellent choice for all kids. Especially if you are trying to get them interested in chapter books. My kids love this!!

MY SON ACTUALLY READS FOR FUN NOW!

My son, 10 y.o., will read if necessary, when he has to. Until we stumbled upon the "Rotten School" series by R.L. Stine (16 books)- now he will read, just to read! Finally, he has learned the joy of reading (I'm a reader) that I have tried to instill in him from the day he was born. He has read excerpts from the book to me and I can understand why he likes them, they hit his funnybone and make him laugh - but at least he's reading! We bought the whole series at once after he was only half way through one book. He would also recommend "Diary of a Whimpy Kid" - there are 2 books out now, a third is to be release later this year.

Rotten School series

My son is almost 10 years old and "devours" the Rotten School series. He can't wait for # 16 to be published in January 08. I pay a fortune in shipping charges to order them from Lebanon, but it's (he's) worth it.
