Publisher's summary

Prolific and popular author Dan Gutman launches a fun new series with this tale about second-grader A.J. and the unusual school he attends. On the first day of class, A.J. tells Miss Daisy he loves football and video games but hates school. Then Miss Daisy tells him she hates school, too, and the students think their teacher just might be an impostor.

Critic reviews

“Reluctant students will have no trouble relating to A.J., and breezy Miss Daisy illustrates how respecting kids and balancing learning with fun can produce positive results.” ( Booklist)

I loved it but I recommend this for like 7 and above bc some times kids try to act like story people but its an amazing book but it’s just rude humor but overall it’s really good just make sure you kid know NOT to act like A.J

Good Teaching Methods

I feel that the author put in some work with this series. Not only do the readers learn facts throughout, but the author has clearly done his research on how to get through to younger audiences: make them think adults are dumb. As a mother, I like the series so far and so do my children.

The only way I could do that was if you had to do a lot more work and then you would be done by yourself so you would be fine and then I could just go home to you if I needed you and you could just come over here
I just wanted you know what I don’t want you know I love and care for me I just don’t know if I want you know that you told him I was just going home and you were not there to help him and you didn’t want him and you know I don’t know if I would want him or him and you would have him but you would have a lot more to say that you don’t want him and you don’t know that you know I just don’t want him and you don’t want him and that’s fine I just want you to know I just don’t know if I know you don’t want you don’t want you don’t want him and you don’t know if I just want you don’t want you just want you don’t want you can do you know I know you just know I just want to know I know you don’t know how you know how to say I know you don’t don’t know how much you don’t want you don’t care what I just want you don’t know that you don’t care

My 6-yr old loved this!

We just discovered Audible books and have been looking for something suitable for long car rides or times when my children don’t feel like reading. This book is great. It’s silly and funny. My daughter was laughing out loud at times. Plan to listen to the other books in this series.

Your mom

The first time you have a problem is if you’re going through something and you’re going through a problem you need help and then you’re not able and then you’re going to get it fixed so I think you’re not able because you’re going to be in the wrong and you have a lot to learn about it so you have a little time and a little bit to get through this but I don’t know how you can handle this situation because I know you’re going to have to be a little more difficult and you know how much you’re dealing and you know that you are not the only one that’s been there for a lot and you have a big deal but I know you are the one who has been through it and I don’t want you to have a little more than that I know you are not a little more and you have to deal and you are not that I am just saying you have a little more but I don’t want it to happen to me I just don’t know what you are I don’t want that I don’t want this situation and you know I don’t want you have a big problem and you have a problem and you have been there before I was there was no problem 😉

Funny!

My six-year-old daughter loved this story! She laughed and tried to answer the questions the teacher had asked. Cute story.
