Jitters

Sarah is afraid to start at a new school, but both she and the reader are in for a surprise when she gets to her class.

During the last week of school, the students in Mrs. Hartwell's class try to come up with the perfect present for their teacher.

Mrs. Hartwell is taking her class on a field trip to the zoo, and because of the fiasco last time she has prepared a list of tips to deal with anticipated disasters--but will they work?

It is class picture day and Mrs. Hartwell is doing her best to keep her class looking their neat and well-dressed best, but the pictures will not be taken until the end of the day, and as the hours pass the students become messier and messier until they look like their normal selves--and that works out just fine.
