Meet the kids in Mrs. Z's wacky and wonderful third grade class! In the first six books of this playful chapter book series, you'll go on adventures with an energetic cheerleader, a scared pet sitter, a baking whiz, a fantasy enthusiast, an imaginative lizard lover, and a talent show star. These funny and reassuring classroom tales are perfect for fans of Andrew Clements, My Weirdtastic School, and The Questioneers.

It's time for school at the brand new Curiosity Academy, where a certain third grade classroom stands out from the rest. It's got a zany teacher named Mrs. Z, who wears high-tops and science earrings, and an eclectic class of students from all over Peppermint Falls. But even when school is cool, life can still be challenging. In each book, follow along with a different student as they try new things, face their fears, and learn to soar in Mrs. Z's class.

? Emma just wants to makes friends at her new school, but an old friend-turned-enemy might ruin her chance at a fresh start.

? Rohan opens a pet care company to raise money for a school garden, but it's hard to care for pets when you've never done it before...and might be a little afraid of them!

? Poppy tries out a new candy recipe for her class, but she's distracted by her grandma, who's suddenly forgetting things she used to know by heart.

? Memo is thrilled to be going to a sci-fi fantasy convention, but his Spanish-speaking abuela has to take him there and Memo doesn't speak Spanish. Nothing could go wrong, right?

? Wyatt usually keeps to himself and chats with his best friend, Lizzie, who happens to be a stuffed lizard. But as he gets older, is it still okay for him to bring Lizzie to school?

? Ayana doesn't know what to perform at the upcoming variety show. Even worse, her dad is a variety show volunteer! How can she figure out her act when he keeps embarrassing her?

With six exciting tales of friendship and family packaged together, and six all-star children's authors, this series is perfect for getting early readers hooked on books! The Kids in Mrs. Z's Class can be read in any order you choose.
