Jamie Gilson's THIRTEEN WAYS TO SINK A SUB will reach ages 8-12 with a classic story of Hobie and his fourth grade class, who gets a substitute for their regular teacher. They have all kinds of plans for the time - but they never counted on getting the strangest substitute teacher with her own special plans for the classroom! A fun classic comes to life!

This book was one of the best books I ever read. It is really funny. I think the author did a really good job writing the book. This book is not about a submarine. It is about kids trying to sink their substitute teacher. To sink is to make him/her cry. Then the sub tells them a secret this is her first time as a sub. They think they can sink her because she is a first timer. And they come close. They flood the room, change names, they even hit her with snowballs. Do they make her cry? Read the book and find out.

You probably think this book is about submarine right? We'll you're thinking wrong. This book is about kids who try to make the substitute cry before the week is over. They mess up the chalkboard, they throw snowballs at her. Do they make her cry? If you want to find out you'll have to read the book.

Kind of slow. A great way to show kids kind of a different perspective to teachers and substitutes. Not something I would enjoy reading but a pretty good book.I'd recommend it to someone who likes reading realistic fiction.

Fun book for the beginning teacher or future teacher to read.
