My Weirder School 12-Book Box Set: Books 1-12

My now 9 years old boy now reads all the time because of these books. He brought 1 of these books from school one day, and spent the whole day reading it until finished because he had to return it the next day. He asked me for the whole set, and what kind of parent would not buy books for his/her kids if they ask? I mistakenly ordered this set (apparently this is the second set, now he also made me buy the first set as well), and he went through these in about a week or less. He keeps on re-reading them, asking me what XXXXX means, so his vocabulary is improving constantly. He HATED reading, and now he just can't stop. I'm also going to order the 3rd set pretty soon, and any other set that come after (if it happens). This is one of those things that I would gladly pay anything for, as this is all about getting my kid to love reading. Take into consideration that our native language is Spanish, not English, but I have my kids in a bilingual school, and my boy was struggling with the English language not long ago. These are not so hard that he can't understand jack, but also not so easy that he doesn't have to inquire about some terms and jargon. Great learning tool.

We found another set of these books for my daughter last summer and it totally increased her love of reading! She blew right through the first set and we were frantic to find more. It would be awesome if you could get all of the 'school' books in one set. Dan Gutman is a talented, funny writer for kids and I would recommend them to every home!

Get ready to go on the most amazing, hysterical, and insightful adventure your child can experience! The humor is relentless that both young child and adult can appreciate when reading together. My second grade son can't read these books and so many others fast enough- all are equally so captivating that it's hard to put any book down. This author has struck an amazing chord in my son who is inspired to read more than playing video games!! This may sound like a sales pitch, but can't be farther from the truth... I am in awe of how fun these books have been to read for my son... Our collection continues growing... This was just the tip of the iceberg!!!

Granddaughter loves them

My son 9 yrs old loves these books. They hold his interest. I think these are at a good reading level for him. I have heard an improvement with his ability to read. There are words that he has to sound out which gives him good practice and better reading skills. He laughs a good bit. We have read other weird school books but found this package and I feel like it was a good deal.

My 8-year-old daughter specifically requested this series after reading one in the library. We purchased the set, and she absolutely loves it! She's really happy with it.

My 8 year old son loves this book series!

It’s very hard to find these books at libraries and online. If you read 1 book a day you likely will not find the next, in sequence, at the library the next day. I highly recommend purchasing a box set and perhaps donating to the library when your done with each series.

Good Collection and our kids loved reading the entire collection

Esta muy contenta mi nieta ella tiene los anteriores a estos y le encantaron tambien.

perfect set for reluctant readers

９歳の男の子の小学校生活を描いたストーリーです。英検3級レベルのお子さんがちょうど楽しんで読めるのではないでしょうか。英語の学校にかよったり、ネイティブの先生に習うよりも安価で英語力が楽しみながら伸ばせます。

Our 9 yr old went through the entire series (about 50 books) within days. She even carried them along to read in the car. Totally worth it. Wish there were more!
