I remember reading the Wayside School series numerous times when I was a kid. I love Louis Sachar’s writing. I saw Sideways Stories from Wayside School (the first in the series) among my other books and I thought I’d re-read it again now as an adult. It did not disappoint. The humor still resonates no matter your age. I still love the idea of a 30-floor school with one class on every floor instead of a one-story tall building with 30 classrooms.
