NEW: The latest addition to the Wayside School Series
|
A Letter from the Author
Dear FOWS (Friend of Wayside School),
Thanks for waiting. I appreciate your patience. Finally, after a short break (24 years), the children are returning to Mrs. Jewls class, ready to resume their studies. Hopefully they haven't forgotten too much. Fortunately they haven't aged, and, I'm happy to say, neither have I. So welcome back to Wayside School, a safe and friendly place where everyone is accepted for who they are. You can laugh and play as you learn your lessons, secure in your knowledge that you have absolutely nothing to worry about. (Except for the CLOUD OF DOOM!!!!) Enjoy, Louis Sachar Author/Yard Teacher |
