Customer Reviews

Out to lunch, no out to read!

This is an excellent book. I loved it. It explains the problem that a third grade girl faces-a magic wind that turns her into others,and then back into herself. In this book, Katie is fed up with the gross school lunches. When the magic wind turns her into the lunch lady, she finds herself in the middle of a food fight. Then, the principal, Mr. Kane, fires her. When Katie turns back into herself, she knows that she and her friends must do something to help the lunch lady, but what. Read this excelling book to find out. It's highly recommended by me. So what are you waiting for, go on and read it. Oh, and it contains no spoilers whatsoever. Also, look for a book called DANA IN THE 7TH GRADE. I heard from a friend that it's a new book that's coming out. It's supposed to be execellent. Out To Lunch is an fantastic book, and I highly encourage you to read it. Trust me, you will not want to put it sown once you start to read it. Good luck finding it, I bet all the copies are already taken.
