Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Seven students are about to have their lives changed by one amazing teacher in this school storysequel filled with unique characters every reader can relate to.

It's the start of a new year at Snow Hill School, and seven students find themselves thrown together in Mr. Terupt's fifth grade class. There's . . . Jessica , the new girl, smart and perceptive, who's having a hard time fitting in; Alexia, a bully, your friend one second, your enemy the next; Peter , class prankster and troublemaker; Luke , the brain; Danielle , who never stands up for herself; shy Anna , whose home situation makes her an outcast; and Jeffrey , who hates school.

They don't have much in common, and they've never gotten along. Not until a certain new teacher arrives and helps them to find strength inside themselves-and in each other. But when Mr. Terupt suffers a terrible accident, will his students be able to remember the lessons he taught them? Or will their lives go back to the way they were before-before fifth grade and before Mr. Terupt?

Find out what happens in sixth and seventh grades in Mr. Terupt Falls Again and Saving Mr. Terupt . And don't miss the conclusion to the series, Goodbye, Mr. Terupt , coming soon!

"The characters are authentic and the short chapters are skillfully arranged to keep readers moving headlong toward the satisfying conclusion."-- School Library Journa l, Starred
