I'm torn. The first half is awful, reinforcing stereotypes we really don't need to see yet again. But the last bit is fabulous, both funny and wise... and the very last is crazy. You'll just have to see for yourself. But remember: Nerd does not equal glasses does not equal puny does not equal allergies. And Cool does not equal bully. (Iow, cool kids can be nice and wear glasses, for example.)
Reread, bumped it up two (yes 2!) stars. Everything I said above I still agree with, but this time I loved the good about it and cared less about the not-so-good. Think of the first half as a long prologue....

Third read. Love it all over again, probably even more.
And it's on openlibrary.org so if your library doesn't have it you can still borrow it for free.
And there's a sequel... I'm off to investigate!… (more)

I can't even parse this. I'm pretty sure I read the first two in the series, but I don't remember them. I'm just not the audience. A lot of people are, though, given the waiting list for this!
Pure nonsense. First, do kids today seriously think teachers aren't people? Second, what happened to the poor deli guy? And a jackhammer? I'm sorry, I like a lot of silly, but this just grates, and would have done so when I was a kid, too.
