Very funny story about Miss Pool's car breaking down. How will she get to school? On Monday she went by hang-glider. Every day that week she got to school in a very unusual way--kids love that! On Saturday, being a very resourceful woman she fixed the car herself--illustration shows her in overalls wiping her hands. The illustrations support the text helping the children with meaning/words. Mid-first grade year up. My second graders loved this story.
