Ugh. I especially didn't like the end.

Growing up, I loved these books. They were the perfect amount of scary mixed with the perfect amount of funny. Now, as a adult, I work with kids. I've introduced a few to the series and they love it as well, so I have been looking for more and more of these books. This is one such book that I didn't have as a child so the first time I read it was as an adult.

It's a fun story about the fear of being sent to the principal's office. Hubie's theories and the rumors he's heard are pretty morbid so this is not recommended for really sensitive children.

The flow is very similar to the first book. So similar that he's even sent to Mrs. Green who was his teacher in the first book? I'm a little confused about that part, but whatever, it works.

Good read, fun story, wonderful series.

The Principal from the Black Lagoon by Mike Thaler, illustrated by Jared Lee is one of the weaker tales in this series.

On the third day of school, our main character is sent to the principal's office... and big surprise, he's heard that the principal, Mrs. Green, is a real monster!

This one had one illustration that wasn't awesome. This is also the very same Mrs Green from the first tale, so we were lacking creativity there.

I liked that the main character had a personality in this one, but it was too similar to first book.
