Watch closely," said Mrs. Jewls. "You can learn much faster using a computer instead of paper and pencil." Then she pushed the new computer out the window The children all watched it fall thirty floors and smash against the sidewalk. "See?" said Mrs. Jewls. "That's gravity! I've been trying to teach you about gravity, but the computer showed you a lot quicker! That's the way things happen at Wayside School. There are 29 kids in Mrs. Jewls's class and this book is about all of them. There is Todd, who got in trouble every day ... until he got a magic dog; Paul, whose life was saved by Leslie's pigtails; Ron, who dared to try the cafeteria's Mushroom Surprise and all the others who help turn a day at Wayside School into one madcap adventure after another. But, after the things that happened in Sideways Stories from Wayside School, what would you expect?
The biggest surprise at Wayside School is that Mrs. Jewls is going to have a baby. The kids are helping her select names: Cootie face if it's a girl; Bucket Head if it's a boy. But now Mrs. Jewls's class is going to have a substitute teacher. And if you know anything about Wayside School, you'll know that you can expect anything to happen.
此系列的書有一相同點，每一本書都分成30個小章節，與故事中30層樓的學校有著巧妙的呼應，故事的重心則圍繞著位於頂樓的班級。老師Mrs. Gorf有著可以把學生變成蘋果的魔法。作者以孩子角度來呈現出故事的內容，作品中到處可看見孩子的純真且直接的話語，卻隱藏著看似無心卻又會讓人發出會心一笑的人生道理。
故事簡介：
只要班上的學生不聽話，老師Mrs. Gorf就把眼前的學生變成蘋果。當老師正慶幸因為學生全都變成蘋果而不用再來上課時，變成蘋果的學生群起反擊，不但讓Mrs. Corf解除對學生們所施的魔法，更技巧的讓Mrs. Corf 永遠地消失。
新來的Mrs. Jewls是位溫柔又和善的老師，但面對這群古靈精怪的學生，一連串天真卻又無厘頭的問題與答案，Mrs. Jewls似乎有點無所適從。
