Never before has school been this mixed up—or this much fun!
Could Mrs Roopy, the new librarian, be A.J.'s craziest teacher yet? When the class shows up they find her dressed first as George Washington and then Little Miss Muffet. And Mrs Roopy won't even admit that it's her! Can A.J. and his class help their very troubled librarian before she does something really crazy?
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.

Gutman Hits it Well, but it Goes Foul,
By
This review is from: My Weird School #3: Mrs. Roopy Is Loopy! (Paperback)
This is the third in Mr. Gutman's new series and it was by far my first-grade son's favorite of the three. The narration by AJ, the reluctant school-goer, is engaging and the character of Mrs. Loopy is well-drawn and entertaining. Throughout the book Mrs. Loopy makes attempts to liven up books for AJ in order to turn him into someone who doesn't hate books. Judging by how well the author lured my son (a reluctant reader) into the book, Mrs. Loopy met her objective.
IMPORTANT NOTE: I am an elementary school teacher and found three parts of the book objectionable. 1) Mrs. Loopy pulls up her shirt to show a tattoo to AJ and his classmates. 2) AJ and his classmates break into Mrs. Loopy's office instead of lining up with the rest of their class. 3) In the last chapter AJ grabs Mrs. Loopy's shirt and pulls it out in order to have visual access to her belly button. An enjoyable read, but be aware of those parts before you read.

This review is from: My Weird School #3: Mrs. Roopy Is Loopy! (Paperback)
My eight year old loves this series. We are trying to entice him into reading more. This series is something that we can discuss, wondering what AJ will do next. I have my son read the title and first page of every chapter and we are working up to having him read more, as I read to him. His reading confidence and skills are definitely improving. The story lines keep his attention. It takes about an hour (for mostly me) to read out loud.
