The Kids in Mrs. Z’s Class

Why didn’t someone think of this before?   18 kids. 18 secrets. 18 stories…from the Who’s Who in Children’s Literature.

Here’s the scoop!  The Kids in Mrs. Z’s Class is a groundbreaking new series from Algonquin Young Readers where each book is written by a different beloved author about a different kid in the same third-grade class - resulting in a class of 18 students! What’s different is that each book’s main character then becomes a supporting character in the next book in the series…resulting in a continued story of 18 books by 18 different authors about the same 18 students in Mrs. Z's class - focusing on one student in each book!

Sounds pretty cool, huh?
