Thirteen Ways to Sink a Sub

103 pp. | Cavendish | August, 2009 | Trade ISBN 978-0-7614-5587-5 $15.99
New ed. (1982, Lothrop)
(3) 4-6 The new edition (published sans Linda Strauss Edwards's original illustrations) has both child appeal and substance. A class of fourth graders holds a competition to see whether it will be the boys or the girls who can make their substitute teacher cry first. After their plans backfire, the kids develop respect for their former foe. Gilson's narration is convincing and engaging.
