        Lawyer-turned-author Louis Sacher had fun writing this sequel to SIDEWAYS STORIES FROM WAYSIDE SCHOOL, and Lionel Wilson (another children's author) clearly enjoys reading it. The nasal, slightly nerdy quality of Wilson's narration intensifies as he portrays child characters; fortunately, this tone amuses young listeners, and since each chapter features a new story and character, the book is not hard to follow, though all Wilson's kids tend to sound alike. Zapping from chapter to chapter, the book is cheerfully plotless and full of things-you'd-get-sent-to-the-principal-for-doing--it works more through accretion of detail than development. But for children happily receiving ample servings of silliness, that appears to be fine. J.C.G. (c) AudioFile 2003, Portland, Maine

        The wacky school--and unusual characters--first portrayed in Sideways Stories from Wayside School is back. But in the sequel, the students venture further than they dared before--Myron walks down to the basement, Allison finds the nonexistent 29th floor, Mrs. Jewls drops a brand-new computer from the 30th floor, Jenny reads a story backwards, and a substitute teacher turns the tables on the class. Sachar has written 30 tongue-in-cheek, slightly madcap stories that are sure to appeal to the slightly caustic humor that is typical of middle readers. Illustrations not seen by PW. Ages 8-12.
