Illustrated by
Larry Di Fiori.
Nine stories, each told by a different student in a third-grade class, focus on the issues a third-grader might encounter (writer's block, wanting to cut in line, etc.), each of which is solved through supernatural means. Though some of the stories tend to be didactic, the black-and-white spot illustrations help to lighten the mood of the otherwise entertaining tales.
