    Author

    Dan Gutman

    Dan Gutman (b. 1955) is a prolific author of popular children’s books. He began his career with adult nonfiction books about baseball, covering topics such as the game’s greatest scandals and the evolution of its equipment. The birth of his first child inspired him to begin writing for a young audience, beginning with Baseball’s Biggest Bloopers (1993). The Kid Who Ran for President (1996) became Gutman’s bestselling book, and has sold almost a million copies. In 1997, he published Honus & Me, a story about a young boy who finds a rare baseball card that magically takes him back to 1909 to play with the great Honus Wagner. Gutman went on to create a series about time-travel encounters with other baseball stars such as Jackie Robinson and Babe Ruth. Miss Daisy Is Crazy (2004) was the first My Weird School book, beginning a long-running series of more than forty novels. With Mission Unstoppable (2011), Gutman debuted a new adventure series: the Genius Files, starring fraternal twins Coke and Pepsi McDonald. The first book in the series became a New York Times bestseller. The sequel, Never Say Genius, was published in 2012. Gutman lives in New Jersey with his family.

    A Bathroom Emergency

    My name is A.J. and I hate school.

    Listen, I’m about to tell you something I never told anyone else. I never even told my best friends, Michael and Ryan.

    But you can’t tell anyone. It’s a secret. Promise? Cross your heart and hope to die? Are you ready? Okay, here’s the secret.

    I can’t tell you.

    Oh, all right, I’ll tell you.

    Sometimes, when I’m at school, I ask my teacher, Miss Daisy, if I can go to the bathroom even though I don’t really have to go to the bathroom. That’s the secret.

    Okay, okay, so it isn’t such a great secret.

    But sometimes I just get that antsy feeling, and I want to get out of class for a few minutes. So I ask to go to the boys’ room.

    I was feeling that antsy feeling one day in class. Miss Daisy was talking about weather, and she was showing us pictures of volcanoes and tornadoes. It was pretty cool, but I just wanted to stretch my legs for a few minutes. So I raised my hand and asked Miss Daisy if I could go to the boys’ room. She said okay.

    Nobody else was in the boys’ room. I didn’t have much to do in there. There’s not a whole lot to do in a bathroom, except for go to the bathroom, which I didn’t have to do. I looked in the mirror for a minute and made funny faces. I washed my hands. I shot paper towels at the garbage can. Then I figured I’d better get back to class.

    I thought I should flush the toilet because then it would sound like I really went to the bathroom. So I flushed it.

    You know how the water is supposed to swirl around and around the toilet bowl like a little tornado and then go down the hole in the bottom? Well, this water didn’t swirl at all. It didn’t go down the hole, either. It just started rising.

    It got higher.

    And higher.

    It went all the way up to the very edge of the bowl. I started to panic. And then it went over the edge and started spilling onto the floor! Water was pouring out of the toilet
