A Great Book

Vampires Don't Wear Polka Dots By Debbie Dadey and Marcia Thorton Jones The third grade at Bailey Elementary is the hardest class to control, especially Eddie, who is the class trouble- maker. Most of the teachers who had this class left Bailey Elementary because of all of Eddie's pranks. The new teacher, Mrs. Jeepers is different, though. She won't quit no matter what Eddie does. Each day Mrs. Jeepers wears a brooch that kept getting greener and greener as Eddie does something bad. Vampires Don't Wear Polka Dots is about how Mrs. Jeepers takes control of the third grade, but the kids begin to wonder about her. I think the authors wrote this book to make people laugh. Vampires Don't Wear Polka Dots is a very funny, entertaining book. I read the book and laughed.I really liked this book because of the interesting way it was written. There are all kinds of clues and mysterious events that make you want to figure out the solution. I thought it was clever how the authors used details and events to make the teacher look like a vampire. In a way the classroom and kids seemed like they could be real, but the authors also included parts that were fun and imaginary.I would recommend this book because you can have fun reading it. I think first to third grade kids would enjoy this book.

A GREAT READ!

this book is so funny and scary I love this book I first noticed it in my library and a friend reccomended it to me and I ended up reading all of them. I love all of the baily school kid books.

This book has a conbination of funny & scary characters.

I like this book because it was funny in the beginning, and then it got weirder and weirder. I like the characters because they were funny and sometimes very serious. I would recomend this book to people who like scary and funny books.

It was a great read-aloud to introduce students to the serie

My third graders are beginning to read more chapter books the first 9 weeks of school. I read "Vampires Don't Wear Polka Dots" out loud to introduce them to the series. I already have 3-5 copies of the other titles waiting! This book was a very interesting book for them to listen to. They became interested in the characters right away. They bonded with the kids in the book and laughed at Eddie! They also liked how strange Mrs. Jeepers is. This is a great book for creating interest in the series and getting kids to read a chapter book. We have done summaries and story maps with the book.
