Synopsis

What happens in a fifth grade class of all boys? Panic attacks during spelling tests, wild schemes to escape homework, trench battles during recess, teacher pranks gone wrong, minivan joyrides, holes to China, turtle protests, earthworm sacrifices– so, pretty much what you’d expect from a group of hilarious ten-year-old boys and one very tired teacher. And now, these crazy boys have a special book of stories, written just for them…

Meet Mr. L’s class:

• Jeffrey studies hard for each spelling test, then panics and can’t remember a single letter.
• Albert will do anything in his power to get out of the cruel torture known as “homework.”
• Charlie is extremely focused on acing fifth grade to elevate his college prospects.
• Greg doesn’t understand why his classmates won’t acknowledge how cool he knows he is.
• Leo and Timmy plot crazy schemes that cause trouble for all their classmates, especially Greg.
• Porge complains that everyone calls him “fat,” even though he’s the skinniest boy in the grade.
• Jake... just wants to hang out.

If any of these boys sound like a fifth grader you know, then these are the stories for you.

This collection of 14 laugh-out-loud stories meets fifth grade boys right where they’re at and are told in a classical style with contemporary edge. They celebrate the humor, imagination, and RIDICULOUS fun of being a boy, from a teacher who spent years surrounded by boys. Intended to help encourage a love of reading, they are written to be reread, again and again.

Perfect for reluctant and experienced readers alike, a great read aloud for families and classrooms who like to laugh. Girls love it, too (who doesn’t love a good laugh at the expense of crazy boys?). The only one who doesn’t like these stories, shockingly, is Mr. L.
