The Kids of the Polk Street School

With the help of the meanest substitute teacher in the whole school, Richard "Beast" Best learns a lesson about fear.

March is the worst month for Richard Best, it's report card time and if he doesn't get good grades he might be left back again.

Making friends with the new girl in her class is hard for Emily after she replaces Emily as the fastest runner and steals her lucky unicorn.

When the kids in Ms. Rooney's class return to school after Christmas, one of them suspects he has found a magic ruler that makes wishes come true.

As Valentine's Day approaches and her class becomes busy making cards, Emily is worried about her fight with Sherri, who tells her, "You'll be sorry.".

Each student in Ms. Rooney's room celebrates the December holidays by being a secret pal to a classmate.
