Do you like action, comedy, laughs, and good times? If you do then read Wayside School is Falling Down by Louis Sachar. It's about the funny and strange things that happen in Wayside school. It's one of the funniest books I have ever read.

An example of one of the funny moments was when the author wrote a whole chapter backwards! I realized the chapter was backwards after I read it forwards. What was especially interesting and funny though was that the girl in the chapter does everything backwards.

Another funny instance is that the school is thirty floors high. What's even funnier is there is only one classroom on each floor! Also there is no nineteenth floor. A different funny thing is in another chapter a girl goes on the nineteenth floor even though there isn't one.

I enjoyed the book very much. It was funny and each chapter wasn't long. You should read this book if you don't like reading. This is because it is almost like reading a book of jokes. It's not long and it's funny. You should read this book.

Wayside School is Falling Down by Louis Sachar

Wayside School is Falling Down by Louis
Sachar is about all the things that happen to all the
kids in Mrs. Jewls class. If you like strange
stories this is the book for you . It is a collection
of stories. The school is built sideways and there's
no nineteenth story!
I recommend this book because the theme is
wacky. If you have a taste for humorous stories
read this book. A few chapters are really
confusing, but you get over it. There are other
books about Wayside School . I also recommend
them.
I feel Lois Sacher wrote this book to
bring laughs into the world.

This book is down-right funny. Goofy even! I think it is one of the funnier, insane books for kids out there. Each chapter brings a whole new meaning to fun as you read about all the students in Mrs. Jewls's class. Trust me when I say you will love it! If you really want to have a good time while reading a book, this one is for you.

Louis Sachar has found a way to combine a child's wacky way of viewing the world, clever plays on words, phrases, and chapters(!!), and a cast of quirky characters to produce a set of books that will coax any reader to keep on reading.

The third of his Wayside School series, Sachar turns the school upside-down, and, in the process, guarantees entertaining reading for adult and child alike. I particularly enjoy the audio version of the book, since the "voice" on tape successfully makes each character's persona his own.

This is a book that your child (and you!) will find yourself reading over and over, discovering new meanings in different passages each time.

Mr. Sachar, keep writing!!

I think it was a good book because it had a lot of humor in it. I also liked it because every paragragh is a different story. I also think it was cool because of the magic parts. I think all people who are funny should read this book. I think this is a good book for all children

Do you like funny stories about school? How about books on zany teachers? If your answer is "yes" then this is totally the book for you! With 30 wacky stories, Wayside School is Falling Down, by Louis Sacher, is one of those `hard-to-put-down' books. The story all starts when the architect who built the school built it with 30 classrooms on top of each other instead of side-by-side. If you think that's a weird beginning, try imagining a teacher teaching her class to make pickles, a girl who saves a boy's life by pulling him in through a 30th story window by the girl's pigtails, and a class where nobody is weird because nobody's normal! With fantasy as its genre, Wayside School is Falling Down not only includes all those and more, but is a great book for comedy-lovers of all ages!

Wayside School is Falling Down by Louis Sachar is a very interesting book about kids and the problems they have at school, such as a child bringing in a hobo for show and tell, and having a thirty stories high building instead of thirty classrooms next to each other! These are only two of the problems children at Wayside school face. So if you like adventures this book is right for you.
I really liked this book because every time I read it I would just crack up because it was so funny. Unfortunately this book is really short. Also it's more child-like than I had expected. .....

Wayside is falling down

My book, Wayside School is Falling Down by Louis Sachar is a story about a class on the thirteenth story Wayside School. Their teacher Mrs. Jewels is the nicest teacher in Wayside School. There is one very big problem at Wayside School there are dead rats living in the basement. They go through a lot of funny problems.
I like Todd in Mrs. Jewel's class because he always gets in trouble and has to ride home on the kindergarten bus early at noon. I like all the characters in this book. I think book really deals with you need to be happy that you go to school and some kids don't get that chance. What I liked about the book is that there is funny in every chapter. What I didn't like is how changed the whole plot every chapter. I was satisfied with the ending because I was surprised.
Louis Sachar keeps the reader entertained. It made me keep reading the book. The vocabulary is easy. This book would appeal from the ages between 9 and 13. It is very funny. I love this book and I recommend it to the people who like to have a good laugh I give the book five stars I really liked this book and I think you read it.

The book I read was Wayside school is Falling Down. I think that book was very funny !!! In my head I was like ha ha !!! The part I thought was the funniest was when Benjamin Nushmutt was saying his name was Mark Miller. The whole class was confused. They didn't know what his name was. If you read this book you will find out alot more about the story. This is what I really thought was funny in this book.

You might think this book looks weird from the cover, but dont worry its a very funny book. There are lots and lots of main characters. My favorite main character is Kathy, she's very funny. She has funny hair that looks like a red cactus on top of her head. She makes her friend laugh by telling him a joke when he was upset.The story takes place in a school with 29 floors. Ms Jewls fourth grade class is on the top floor. There's only one classroom on each floor. WaySide School is falling down is a very funny and great book. You should read this book!
