Oh no! Mr. Granite is sick in this seventh book in the My Weirder School series. A.J. and the gang will have a substitute teacher all week. Yay! But Miss Kraft is weird. She wears a clown costume and uses hand puppets to talk. She likes to do magic tricks. And she's happy all the time. What is her problem?

Perfect for reluctant readers and word lovers alike, Dan Gutman's hugely popular My Weird School series has something for everyone. Don't miss the hilarious adventures of A.J. and the gang.


  • A Wacky Substitute Teacher: Miss Kraft doesn’t just teach—she rides a unicycle, juggles (fake) brains, and uses a sock puppet named Mr. Bongo for math lessons!
  • Hilarious Classroom Humor: Join A.J. and his friends as they misunderstand what “suspended” means and try to pull off the ultimate “Big Book Drop” prank.
  • An Unforgettable School Story: A.J. is sure his new teacher is daft, and he’ll do anything to prove it—even if it means getting tricked into sawing his rival Andrea in half.
  • Perfect for Reluctant Readers: With short chapters, easy-to-read text, and non-stop silly situations, the My Weird School series is famous for getting kids hooked on reading.
