Review by 11 year old Singaporean boy

This is the best book that I have read so far. I think that this book is very interesting as reading about Jake switching bodies with the very person that he dislikes, Mr. Dirksen, his science teacher amuses me. Also, this story is about a boy and a teacher who after switching bodies with each other understand how the other person feels. I wonder how it would feel like if I was trapped in the body of someone that I do not like. After reading this book, I would think twice about making fun about someone just incase I switched bodies with him and suffer what everyone has been doing to him. I learned that everyone has feelings and we should treat them with the same amount of respect they treat us with too. Overall, I feel that this book is suitable for people with good imaginations especially kids. If I could recommend this book to anyone, I would recommend it first to my classmates.

One of my favourites

This was one of my favourite paperbacks when I was younger. Todd Strasser did a great job mixing "weird science" storylines with sympathetic young adult situations, and the result is an entertaining story that could've been a great TV movie or series (Strasser probably thought so too, and "Help!" became the first in a series of books). A student switches bodies with his teacher, and gains a new perspective on how things are as an adult. If you like this one, also check out "Abe Lincoln for Class President," and "Please Don't Be Mine, Julie Valentine."

Help! I'm Trapped In My Teachers Body

This is a intersting book because it is about A kid named Jake Sherman and a the dorkiest teacher in the whole school Mr. Dirksen. Jake the kid always gets introble by his teacher Mr. Dirksen because he always meses around in class. He never dose his work and he never lesins to the teacher. One day something happens that all changes. Mr.Dirksen changes into Jake an Jake changes into Mr.Dirksen. At first Jake dosn't want to be Mr. Dirksen, but after a couple of days he likes it because he could do things that a kid can't do. Mr.Dirksen likes to be Jake because he never had a childhood and now that he has a chance to be a kid he is not going to waist it by not doing nothing. Jake would always let the students in class do booms and all the kids would look at him weard because Mr.Dirksen never let them have fun, but with Jake being the teacher all the kids would love it. The kids didn't know that Mr.Dirksen and Jake had switch bodys, but after some days Mr.Dirksen and Jake would have to switch because they don't want to be each other for the rest of their life's. So one day they had to go to the lab to mix some potiens and go back to normel. So Mr.Dirksen learnd how to a kid has a childhood and Jake learned that being an adult is a lot of hard work, but he got to do things like an adult that kids cannot do. This is a realy good fictional book to read for all ages.

Help!!! I'm Trapped In My Teacher's Body

I loved this book because, it's really funny and it gives readers a point-of-view of a teacher.It's about a 12 year old kid named Jake Sherman. Everything goes well, until he and his teacher's body switch. To make matters worse, his teacher, Mr. Dirksen, doesn't want to switch back!!!Did I leave you hanging?? Well, read this book to find out!!

Had us hooked from the first chapter!

I'm a Middle School Special Education Teacher. I read this book to my class (ages ranging from 11 - 14). ALL of my students loved it! I have never found a book that kept them so engaged in the story. They begged me to read it (even when it wasn't Reading class) and were disappointed when we finished. We have begun collecting this series of books in classroom sets. The minute we finish reading one - we begin another. We have completed reading 4 of the Help! I'm Trapped... series & our fifth just arrived yesterday. We are ordering our sixth next week. The students are worried we won't have time to finish them all before school is out. Most students buy their own books so they can keep them and re-read them when we finish.
