But I'll tell you this much: They were the kinds of things that sent kids to juvenile detention homes in upstate New York, so far away that you never saw them again. Doug Swieteck tried Number 6 on Mrs. Sidman last It was something ...
That's the kind of stuff that gets teachers to hate you. But the thing was, I never did any of that stuff. Never. I even stayed as far away from Doug Swieteck as I could, so if he did decide to try Number 166 on anyone, I wouldn't get ...
Her voice got kind of crackly, like there was a secret code in the static underneath it. “Holling Hoodhood,” she said. “Here.” I raised my hand. “Hoodhood.” I shook my “Yes.” Mrs. Baker sat on the edge September 3.
This should have sent me some kind of message, since teachers aren't supposed to sit on the edge of their desks on the first day of classes. There's a rule about that. “Hoodhood,” she said quietly. She thought for a moment.

LibraryThing Review
Ulasan Pengguna - ms_rowse - LibraryThingLove love love this book. I want to be Mrs. Baker--she is the perfect teacher.
