“Even the most reluctant reader will be drawn in by the humor and repetitive silliness. Add where beginning chapter books are needed.” (School Library Journal )

About the Author

Dan Gutman has always been a baseball fanatic. He played in Little League as a kid, and one of the first magazine articles he ever sold explained the science behind the spitball, the scuffball, and corked bats. When he thought about the T206 Honus Wagner—the most valuable baseball card in the world—he began to write honus & me, his first Baseball Card Adventure. That book introduced Joe Stoshack—Stosh—a kid who can use baseball cards to travel through time and meet the game’s greatest players. Stosh has since gone on many amazing, fast-paced adventures, most recently to try to save Roberto Clemente.

More About the Author

This is hard. I'm a pretty regular Jersey guy who spent fifteen years trying to write newspaper articles, magazine articles, screenplays, books for adults, and just about everything else before I discovered the one thing I'm good at--writing fiction for kids. I aim for kids who DON'T like to read, and hopefully the kids who DO like to read will enjoy my stuff too. For all the gory details about me, check out my web site.

My twin 7 year old girls LOVE ALL of the Weird School Books. AJ is their favorite character. This new book delivers all the laughs the other books have delivered. We read it in one sitting and love the new character Coach Hyatt and her son Wyatt. Andrea "rocks" and annoys AJ in new and creative ways. It was great! We are preordering the next book in the series.

I am a big football fan so I bought this book, and found out that it was pretty good. The writer knew what he was talking about and also made it fun. So if your son likes football then you should buy this book.
