The Best Series

I am 8 years old and Mr. Klutz is Nuts is another great addition to the My Weird School Series. There are 19 books in this series. This series is about a kid named AJ and his two best friends. He goes to this very, very, very, very, very weird school. So, I think that if you like funny stories you will sure like this. You do not have to read them in order so you get to choose which you should read first. By AG

Mr. Klutz is Nuts

If you like to laugh, then you have to read Mr. Klutz is Nuts by Dan Gutman. It is a humorous fiction book. This story takes place at a school during the school year. A.J. is a lazy amd unmotivated student at school. He is always saying that school is a waste of time. Mr. Klutz is a wacky and crazy risk-taker. He is always doing dangerous stunts. A.J. doesn't want Mr. Klutz to get hurt. Throughout the school year, Mr. Klutz tries to get the students invloved and interested in school. In the book, A.J. tries to problem solve. He tries to stop Mr. Klutz from doing crazy things. Mr. Klutz climbed the flag pole one day and couldn't get down, so the school called the fire department. My favorite character was Mr. Klutz, because he is a very cool principal. He tries to get the students to enjoy school. I cannot relate to the characters in the book, because they do very silly things in school. At my school, we take school more seriously. I've acted like Mr. Klutz before. I like to motivate the boys on my baseball team to do well. This is my text-to-self connection. Mr. Klutz motivated the kids to do well in school. This book was so exciting. I loved it. I would not like to change anything in this book, because it was well written. I think any kid with a sense of humor would enjoy this book. I believe third and fourth graders would really enjoy reading this book.

A Kids Favorite

I read this book aloud to my 1st and 3rd grade daughters. They loved evrey bit of the story. This book is a lot of fun.

An awesome book of my favourite school

I really enjoyed this book. I would love to have a principal like Mr Klutz because he would do really funny things and if we studied extremely hard he would give us very interesting field trips. I think this is better than the first book (Miss Daisy is Crazy) because it has more interesting ideas for example in the first book AJ made Mr Klutz wear a gorilla outfit and change the school into a video arcade but in this book AJ makes him kiss a pig and climb a flagpole. In addition once when AJ was sent to the principal's office, Mr Klutz was hanging upside down from the ceiling like a bat. I am looking forward to reading the other books in the series.

More fun in school!

My seven year old nephew thinks these books are a hoot! Thanks to Dan Gutman for writing books that help to make me his "favorite" aunt.
