Description

Graphic novel fans, prepare for liftoff! New York Times bestselling author Dan Gutman and illustrator Jim Paillot have brought you an all-new series of My Weird School graphic novels! In this first book, A.J. and his friends at Ella Mentry School are headed on a field trip to NASA headquarters. But their tour guide, Mr. Corbett, is a total space cadet! And what happens when A.J. accidentally launches the whole class into outer space! Full of visual gags, space aliens, and hilarious full-color illustrations, this is the weirdest graphic novel in the history of the world! With more than 30 million books sold, the My Weird School series really gets kids reading!

Dan Gutman may be weird, but he is also beloved by kids, parents, and teachers across the country. His books include the My Weird School series (more than 23 million copies sold), the Baseball Card Adventures (more than 2 million copies sold) and the New York Times bestselling The Genius Files. We also publish his spoofy picture book, Casey Back At Bat, and one of Dan's favorites, Johnny Hangtime. Dan lives in New York (a very weird place), with his weird wife, Nina. Jim Paillot lives in Arizona (another weird place) with his weird wife and two weird children.

"Gutman's trademark punning panache is instantly recognizable alongside longtime series illustrator Paillot's vibrant full-color cartoon art, giving this just the right feel of being both new and familiar. Established fans should be at home here, and the story stands alone well enough to entice new readers...Catnip for those who relish silliness." -- Kirkus Reviews "Barely a panel or clever aside goes by without a chuckle or belly laugh. Fans will be absolutely delighted and newcomers no less so." -- Booklist
