- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Third book in the series. The school is back open and ready for new silly stories. Great way to end the year
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Not as strong as the others--he's really running on fumes here--but there were still some really great moments. Jokes that are set up early on and take 80 pages for the payoff--that's the kind of book this is. 4 stars because it made me laugh anyway, but it's not the best of the series.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5It was a very funny book.I like the chapter going up high and I would recomend it
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This book picks up where Wayside School is Falling Down left off. It has all the humor of the series, and, in this book, the teachers get a little stranger as Mrs. Jewls (who was strange enough to begin with) heads off to have a baby. Wayside is just as funny as ever when the kids all come back to their strange school, series of subs, and principal, Mr. Kidswatter.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I was introduced to Wayside School stories in the 4th grade by Mrs. Avery, aka the coolest teacher ever. I have tried to share them with every child I know since.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I like it
Allot like a lot still chill it is interesting - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Im only writing a review for the third book in this series because to be honest they sorta melt together in my brain and also I like this one the best...so anyway I love these books they are amazing. I read them and listened to them via audiobook when I was a kid and loved them and are still very entertaining reading them as an adult. These were some of the books that really got me to read for fun. The stories are creative and funny and surprisingly nuanced and I definitely recommend these books.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I love how these books hold up and how they stay true to themselves -- despite being written decades apart. They capture the way school is its own complete world, how it works in strange ways that as a child you accept, how its people are larger than life.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Louis does it again! Our favorite characters are up to their "strange" ways. I love that each novel ends a way that makes a connection to the previous books.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Wayside will certainly appeal to the target audience, and adults will enjoy the crazy humor as well. Sensitive children or ones who don't have a grasp of irony should stay away from it.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5These are fun books.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Aww, yay! Since we already know the kids and the teacher, this book adds in new characters - and it's great fun. And just as ridiculous as the others.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Weird, illogical, goofy and crazy, Wayside School Gets a Little Stranger is hilarious . It's just the kind of book which tickles my funny bone because it's just so, well, strange .
Your school consists of 30 stories, each story with only one classroom, and the elevator only goes up but never down. Wait, don't forget that there's no nineteenth floor but you could swear you can hear cows from there.. Your dentist is a hypnotist, and your substitute teacher has 3 nostrils. God, I just loved the craziness of it all.
Each chapter is a vignette, but some come together to form a story. It's okay if you didn't read the first 2 books, I think it just added to the hilarity. And you know what, amidst the goofiness of it all, there was something sweet and something profound inserted in between the pages, which is the kind of thing I admire in Louis Sachar's works.
Its humour isn't for everybody (one of my friends couldn't appreciate what made this book so funny to me), but I don't really care. I'm a weirdo and this book is for me.
