"Mrs. Dole Is Out of Control" is a book about a PTA president named Mrs. Dole. Mrs. Dole wants everybody to graduate from the second grade at big party. The PTA vice-president, Mrs.Young, just wanted a normal "step-up" party for the kids to move on to the subsequent grade. But, Mrs. Dole insisted there was a gigantic party with all sorts of crazy stuff that was not necessary. For example, she wanted a petting zoo with farm animals, a huge rocket of fireworks and an airplane flyover.
The kids in the school get involved in the argument about what to do. The kids all think Mrs. Dole should do what she wants, including all of the craziness. They are looking forward to having lots of fun at a big blowup of a party. But things don't work out so well in the end. There is a fire and they realize that Mrs. Dole should not be in charge.
"Mrs. Dole Is Out of Control" by Dan Gutman is a good book for anybody who likes silliness and fun. It is part of a series of books about goofy grownups so I think you should read all of them. This book made me laugh a lot!

It's the end of the school year, and Mrs. Daisy's class is going to "graduate" to third grade. A.J. and the class just found out that Ryan's mom, Mrs. Dole, is the new PTA president, and she has big plans for the celebration. Did you know you can Rent-A-Anything, even Blue Angels?!
MRS. DOLE IS OUT OF CONTROL is the very first installment of the "My Weird School Daze" series, which follows the 21-book "My Weird School" series. The story is told from the point of view of A.J., a rambunctious boy who has a lot in common with Dennis the Menace.
The writing is on a young boy's level, but some parents may not appreciate the occasional name calling and A.J.'s attitude. A.J. isn't a great example of how to behave. On the other hand, a lot of A.J.'s perspective is typical of the average elementary-school boy. The best way to get someone interested in reading is to give them a book that speaks to them. Chances are, this book will relate to boys everywhere.

My sons love the Dan Gutman Weird School Books and they weren't disappointed with the new "Daze" series. They both read the book twice. As per my eldest, "This book is just as funny as the rest."
