Warning : Student driver !

Have you ever rode the school bus?Did you have a nice bus driver and then you got a mean bus driver?If you want the experience read Dont get driving the school bus to learn how it feels. I have read alot of books but this the is the first book I dont want to put down.This book is about a kid named Kyle who thinks he is the class clown.After school he gets on the bus and he has a bad bus driver who will get you in trouble if you switch seats. He used to have to try to get the mean bus driver to quit. I like that the book has a related part because I am a sixth grader like kyle and his friends. I realy recommend this book to people who like read books about a trouble maker.you should read this book because you will wet your pants with laughter. ISABEL

Kyle, Dusty, and Wilson are always in trouble. From the carelessness of eachother, they accidently left a wasp's nest in the school bus. Poor Grandma (the bus driver) was replaced by an old prison bus driver because she was sent to the hospital. Kyle, Dusty, and Wilson do everything trying toget rid of him. Now they have put themselves, the single digits, and the bus driver in a life and death situation.

A very good book

This book was very well written, with excellent characterization. Both 'Sarge' and 'Grandma'were excellent, as well as Kyle, Dusty and Wilson. A definite page turner, with definite humor.
