Everyone's favorite time-travelers are changing their styles
"The Time Warp Trio" series now features a brand-new, eye-catching
design, sure to appeal to longtime fans, and those new to Jon
Scieszka's wacky brand of humor.
Lois Sachar, best-selling author of the Wayside School series, knows how to make kids laugh. And there are laughs galore in this popular book, now available again in hardcover. Meet Mrs. Gorf, the teacher who turns the students in Wayside School into apples.
"Swimming with Sharks"Rita's times aren't fast enough to swim for
the Sharks with her friends. To improve she must learn flip turns,
but every time she tries, she gets water up her nose Jazz has an
idea that might be the key to Rita's success, but what if Rita
comes in first on a slower team? Would she rather win or be with
her friends? Or is there another way for Rita to swim with the
Sharks?
"Track Attack"Jazz loves being on a track team where she sprints
fast as a lightning bolt. Her dad loves that she's on the team,
too. He's her biggest fan--maybe too big a fan. He argues with the
coach, yells at the ref, and screams his head off at every meet.
Jazz loves to run, but can she focus on the race while Dad is
having a track attack?
"Basketball Bats"Henry and his four friends on Rockford Road are an
unbeatable basketball team--on their driveway court. But without
team T-shirts or an official name, can they take on the Tigers, a
team that plays at the huge YWCA and has a player old enough to
shave? Henry feels sure he can lead his friends to victory, but is
he really a team player? Or is he a ball hog? "Goof-Off
Goalie"
There's nothing Goose wants more than to play goalie for his soccer
team. It looks like so much fun--and so easy --on TV. But can he
quit daydreaming long enough to stop the ball? With Henry's
training, Goose is sure he can go from goof-off to goalie in no
time. Just as Goose starts to improve, Henry gets grounded because
his grades are slipping. Will Goose help Henry in return? Or is
being a goalie more important than friendship?
"Cheesie Mack is a true original." --Gordon Korman, bestselling
author of "Swindle "and "Schooled"
Ronald "Cheesie" Mack is not a genius or anything, but he remembers
everything that happened before, during, and after fifth-grade
graduation, and he's written it all down in his own unique and
hilarious way--with lots of lists, drawings, and splenderful
(that's "splendid" plus "wonderful ") made-up words.
Cheesie--with a little help from Steve Cotler--writes about family,
friendship, and tough choices in an unforgettable voice that will
have kids laughing out loud. Readers of "Diary of a Wimpy Kid" will
love both the clever humor and the black-and-white illustrations
throughout.
"From the Hardcover edition."
Cheesie and Georgie are back, and this time they're off to the
greatest summer camp in Maine. As the oldest of the Little Guy
campers, they'll get to make the campfires and choose the sports
teams. It's sure to be their best summer yet
Then disaster strikes. Cheesie and Georgie are put in a cabin with
the Big Guy campers, including Cheesie's archenemy, Kevin Welch.
Now the youngest--and smallest--of the Big Guys, Cheesie has no
choice but to use his brains to fight Kevin's brawn--he challenges
the bully to a Cool Duel. The adventure that follows includes a
toilet on a wall, a headless skateboarder, a garter snake mustache,
and "the scariest ghost story ever told." Will Cheesie survive to
start middle school?
With plenty of lists, drawings, and made-up words, Cheesie--with a
little help from Steve Cotler--tells the story of the best worst
summer ever.
