Did you think this book was funny?
I have read this book to several 3rd grade classes and kids that age, 7-10, love this one! The idea of a kids getting one over on his teacher tickles them. The book is an homage to the good teacher in the ending. Clements has a way of giving you and inside view of how a child's brain works. Both of my kids, girl and boy, enjoyed many of his books.
I thought it was funny how this average kid who wanted to do an experiment/have fun/have a challenge caused a huge stir in his school which included everyone from students to faculty. Watching just one word rattle adults could be seen as amusing.
