    Neuf de l'école des loisirs: Il y a un garçon dans les toilettes des filles
    • L'adresse de Bradley, c'est au fond de la classe, dernière place du dernier rang, personne à côté, personne devant. Si son bureau avait pu y entrer, il l'aurait mis dans le placard et ç'aurait été mieux pour tout le monde, pense-t-il. Au-dessus de sa tête, il y a un tableau d'honneur sur lequel sont affichées les étoiles d'or obtenues par les bons élèves. Inutile de dire que Bradley n'en a jamais obtenu. Bradley n'a pas d'amis, sauf ses animaux en plastique, à la maison. Bradley n'aime personne, dit-il. Surtout pas lui-même. Et il ment à tout le monde, à commencer par lui-même. Mais cette année, deux événements se produisent à la rentrée : un nouveau s'assied à côté de Bradley et Carla, la jeune conseillère d'éducation, a décidé de croire à tous ses mensonges. Voilà de quoi faire vaciller sérieusement les convictions du jeune garçon.

      'Watch closely,' said Mrs Jewls. 'You can learn much faster using a computer instead of paper and pencil.' Then she pushed the computer out of the window. The children all watched it fall thirty floors. 'See?' said Mrs Jewls. 'That's gravity . . .' That's the way things happen at Wayside School. There are twenty-nine kids in Mrs Jewls' class and this book is about all of them: there is Todd, who is in trouble every day, until he gets a magic dog; Paul, whose life is saved by Leslie's pigtails; Ron, who dares to try the cafeteria's mushroom surprise; and all the others who help turn a day at Wayside School into one madcap adventure after another.
