Gr. 1-3. Ms. Hannah, the art teacher, is completely bananas, at least in A.J.'s opinion, that is! She wears a dress made of recycled pot holders and she doesn't believe in garbage. She thinks every last piece of trash can be recycled to become beautiful art and she proves this when she adds A.J.'s tissue to her ball of paint-speckled newspaper! Throughout the story, A.J. struggles with his negative feelings toward art and a few of his fellow classmates, but in the end he finds a unique way of combining kinetic and performance art with friendship to create an unforgetable sculpture! A humorous, short chapter book with illustrations, kids are sure to become fast fans of the My Weird School series and all its crazy teachers!
