Classes Are Canceled!: A Branches Book (Eerie Elementary #7) (7)

Praise for The School is Alive! (Eerie Elementary #1): "The plot and twisted storyline will serve the beginning chapter book reader well. Word choice, action, and crisp sketches support the story, allowing early readers to develop ideas and easily follow the plot." -- Library Media Connection "Give this early chapter book to readers who want something scary but aren't ready for the 'Goosebumps' or 'Scream Street' series." -- School Library Journal "Dynamic, cartoonish illustrations amp up the action, and fun onomatopoeia provides atmosphere. . . . Readers who relish the action of Dav Pilkey's Ricky Ricotta series and . . . R.L. Stine's Rotten School titles may want to enroll at Eerie Elementary." -- Booklist "Chabert hits just the right horror note for transitional readers, with thrills that include a dash of absurd humor and fall tactfully short of being truly frightening. . . . This [is] a worthy and creepy addition to the Branches series." -- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books Praise for The Locker Ate Lucy! (Eerie Elementary #2): "A good fit for readers not quite ready for Lovecraft Middle School or Goosebumps." -- Booklist Eerie Elementary is falling apart! Floors are splitting, walls are crumbling, and students are in serious danger! Principal Winik announces that the school must be torn down. But Sam, Lucy, and Antonio are not sure that is the answer . . . Could this all be part of Orson Eerie's plan to live forever? Sam and his friends must work fast to find out! MATT LOVERIDGE likes to draw subjects that expose the lighter side of life, so he loves illustrating children's books! He's the illustrator of Dragon Masters .
