Book Hero thinking about your next read

A special paperback bindup edition of books 1 - 3 in the hilarious chapter book series--perfect for reluctant readers.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

The Classroom 13 series is about the students of a very unlucky classroom. The first title begins when unlucky teacher Ms. Linda LaCrosse wins the lottery and shares her winnings with her class, giving each student over a billion dollars!

You might think this was nice, but it was not. It was a nasty idea. As the students of Classroom 13 are about to learn, winning the lottery is not always lucky and will lead to many disastrous moments in the future.

The easy-to-read chapters are full of humour, action, secret codes, and fun. They will prompt hours of conversation among friends, families, and classmates. The final chapter encourages young readers to write their own chapter and send it in to the author, Honest Lee.

This book includes The Unlucky Lottery Winners of Classroom 13, The Disastrous Magical Wishes of Classroom 13, and The Fantastic and Terrible Fame of Classroom 13.

About the Author

Honest Lee is a liar! You can't trust a thing he writes. He insists that his stories are true. And they're totally not! Then again, I could be Honest Lee, which would mean I'm lying and my stories are true. What's the truth? I have no idea. Honestly.

Matthew J. Gilbert is one of many Matthew Gilberts. Seriously. There's like a trillion of them. This particular Matthew Gilbert writes stories and has a nearly perfect moustache. When he's not writing about Classroom 13, he's watching monster movies, eating tacos and singing made-up songs about his cats.

Joelle Dreidemy spent her childhood in the countryside among cows and books and has been drawing since she learned to walk. She lives in France, where she makes art for books, magazines, greeting cards and more. When she's not illustrating, she sings and plays guitar in a rock band.
