INTERMEDIATE FICTION
Fletcher, Ralph

Flying Solo

(2) 4-6 When the substitute fails to show up, Mr. Fabiano's sixth-grade class takes it upon themselves to go solo for the day, handling the schedule with surprising maturity (mostly). Containing honest and uncondescending portrayals of several students, the novel is more thoughtful and poignant than most school stories, while still appropriately leavened with comic moments.
