Summary: Sideways Stories for Wayside School
Review:
If you are a wonderful reader and you like chapter books, I have a good book for you to read it is called Sideways Stories for Wayside School.This wonderful book is by Louis sachar. This book has 30 chapters filled with fun and excitment. In those 30 chapters it talks about different kids in just one class. This book has a lot of weird and crazy things in it like in the first chapter, that teacher is coockoo crazy! If you moved or did anything she didn't like you would become an apple. I would recommend this book to anyone because I know how people love to laugh and this book would make them laugh. I hope they enjoyed this book like I did.

Summary: Awkward but a Great Story!
Review: I recently dug this book out from beneath a lot of my childhood stuff. My dad read it to me when I was just a little kid; at 18, I just reread it, and enjoyed it as much, if not more so--because now I could read between the lines.

Thirty chapters. Each one is like a fable--an entertaining story, a nugget of truth woven into the fabric of each one. Peer pressure, politeness, standing up for yourself...sometimes the lessons are direct, sometimes they are subtle. Maybe kids won't understand them exactly, but they'll certainly remember the stories and remember the lessons thus.

The story:

There is something very wrong with Wayside School. It was built sideways--instead of one story with 30 rooms, is has 30 stories and one room per story. No nineteenth story, though, meaning that Miss Zarves, who teaches there, doesn't exist, either.

At Wayside, students have the tendency to get turned into apples; those pesky dead rats, who live in the basement, are always trying to get into class; sleeping through class is considered educational; turning the lights on and off is a task not just anyone can do; you can help yourself to ice cream with the flavor of your fellow students, but please refrain from biting your classmates; the lunch lady just can't ruin milk, no matter how hard she tries; mosquito bites are great for counting purposes; your two missing teeth are the best in the whole world, as are the hat you aren't wearing and the joke you didn't tell; only being able to read upside down ain't much of a problem, after all; where toes cost a nickel apiece, unless they're little runts; trading names consists of spinning around really fast until you don't know who's who; if two plus two doesn't equal four, watch out; and where you need a reason to be sad, but not to be happy.

"Sideways Stories From Wayside School" by Lous Sachar is a classic. Buy it, for your kid, your sibling, your niece/nephew, or yourself. It's entertaing for all ages, and just might help its reader become a better person.

Summary: Must Read!
Review: Louis Sachar wrote a great book called Side ways stories from WaySide School. In this book are many interesting characters. Also had many interesting things. But there was this one teacher named Mrs. Gorf. She was an unusual teacher and did unusual things to her students. Mrs. Gorf was one reason why this story was great.
This book is a must read for many reasons. This terrific book is a page-turner. 'You want to here more right' When I came to a story that I didn't like I knew it wouldn't last long. With the verity of characters it makes each story interesting in it own way.
Louis is a great author. He was born on March 20, 1954. His first book was Side ways stories from WaySide School. It takes Louis a year to a year in a half to write a book. Most of the time he gets his ideas from his dog and his daughter. You should read this book I' m sure you will like it. by Brittney P.

Summary: The Best Book Ever
Review: Nancy is my favorite character in the book Sideway Stories from Wayside School. I like it because... the chapter is very funny because if you think nancy is a girl you are totally wrong! It's a boy! He has big handsand feet and he thinks Nancy is a girls name. His class, Mrs. Jewls's class, thought his name was odd too. There are 23 people in his Class (not counting him). Before they had Mrs.Jewls they had Mrs. Gorf. I'm going to tell you about the whole story. So read it if you like weird books you will love this book !

Summary: A Review by Hana Ma, Class 5-506
Review: Over the summer, I read a book called Sideway Stories from Wayside School by Louis Sachar. This book talks about very silly characters. There was one story that I liked the most, which I will tell you about first. (By the way, the yard teacher was the one who wrote the book.) Okay! back to the story. Jason was in class listening when he heard a bubble pop. He spun around and there was his enemy, Joy, chewing bubble gum. He told his teacher Mrs. Jewls. Mrs. Jewls was disappointed at Joy, so she was going to write her name under the word DISCIPLINE!! Jason stopped her and asked if he could write it on the board. So when Jason got out of his seat, Joy stuck the bubble gum on his chair. Jason sat back down, but when it was recess time, he tried to get up. But he couldn't! He was stuck! Mrs. Jewls tried everything she could to get him off, but nothing worked. Do you know how he came off? Finally, Joy had to kiss him on the nose. Jason fell and bumped his head.

This story reminded me of a time when my leg was stuck on the monkey bars. I was hanging upside down. Then I saw my friend. When I tried to get down, I found that my leg was stuck. I stayed there for a while, but then I got a idea. I calmly twisted my leg to one side and it was loose. I was free again!!

I would recommend this book to whoever likes to read about different characters or likes entertaining stories and enjoys laughing. This book is also recommended to third graders and up! So this is my review about the book Sideway Stories from Wayside School.

Summary: Memories
Review: This book brings back memories. I used to read it all of the time when I was a child. I would check it out from my school's library almost every chance I got. I had forgotten about this book, because it has been a while since I was in the 2nd or 3rd grade. I'm 22 now. I ran across it while surfing the net and the memories started flooding back. I think that any child would love to read this book and it will become one of their favorites.

Summary: "Sideways" Super Story!
Review: This book is about a crazy school that has been built sideways--with 30 classrooms straight up--and the ultra-crazy students who go to school there. Each chapter focuses on individual students, and serve well as stand-alone stories or as part of a whole. My favorite is the story of John, a student who can only read upside down words. His teacher tells him he can't keep his book upside-down. Instead, he has to learn to stand on his head! Unfortunately for him, John has a really round head, and can't stand on it... This is just an example of the silliness that abounds in Wayside! Great story for read-aloud, or silent reading time.
