It's the First Day of School...Forever!

by R.L. Stine

 

its the first day of school 

   

 For poor Artie, the first day of school is the worst day of school, but even worse, it seems to go on forever. No really, every morning when Artie wakes up, he has to repeat that horrible first day of school, again and again and . . . well, you get the picture. Artie has got to find out what's causing him to repeat the same bad day over and over, before it lasts a lifetime! Another clever, just-slightly-scary book from the master R.L.Stine!  Ages 8-13 ($15.99)
