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.

4.0 out of 5 stars Play on Words, February 10, 2007
This series is very cute and funny. Being an elementary school teacher, I can relate to the humor and the going ons at school. My students get a kick out of these books! This is one series I will keep on my book shelves, for humor.

In Ms. LaGrange is Strange, Ella Mentry School has lost their lunch lady. The schools new lunch lady talks in French and writes YAWYE in her mashed potatoes. AJ, a student at Ella Mentry, won't eat any vegtables at lunch time. He would rather eat junk food. Ms. LaGrange gets him to eat one pea in exchange for finding out what YAWYE means "You Are What You Eat." While this is going on, Ella Mentry School has been given the award for the cleanist school in the district. The school was named after Ella Mentry and she is going to visit the school. The day that she shows up, there is a huge food fight in the vomitorium (cafeteria). She is pleased to see this and even joins in on the fun. This is a crazy and funny story. Read to find out what else happens in this story.
