louis sacher
that's pronounced "sacker"
.... anyway, have you read any books by louis sacher? i've read dogs don't tell jokes, all three Wayside School books and Holes. They're all very creative and funny. Wayside school is probably the very best of his works, thpugh. it's um...original and unique.

Dogs Don't Tell Jokes! That is a great book! I remember reading it a long time ago when I didn't feel well. I still don't find the "How do you tell if a worm is a boy or a girl" joke, though.
What's cookin'? Mashed potatoes and gravy.

Oh hey, I remember the Wayside books... man, that was a long time ago.
There was an entire one of quirky algebra problems, if I recall...

Man, Wayside School was the best about 9 or 10 years ago. They were definitely very original.
