Prequel to Miss Nelson Has a Field Day under the .rtf section of the

Miss Nelson is Back
By Harry Allard
From the Book Jacket
When the high-spirited kids in Room 207 learn that Miss Nelson is to be away
for several days, they begin to make plans. What better time to act up and
be wild?
They change their tune, however, when they hear all about the terrible Miss
Viola Swamp-"the meanest substitute in the whole wide world."
"Oooh," they say.
Naturally, when Mr. Blandsworth, the school principal, decides to take over
for Miss Nelson, the kids in 207 are relieved. No Miss Swamp to worry about.
But when relief turns to groaning boredom, they hatch a clever plot-not
unlike something Miss Nelson herself might dream up.
In this delightful comedy of disguise and surprise, Allard and Marshall pay
a return visit to Room 207. There's nothing quite like Miss Nelson and her
class-or is there?
And what about the famous Miss Swamp? Oh, she's around.
Harry Allard and James Marshall have teamed up before to create the
wonderful adventures of the Stupid family in The Stupids Step Out, The
Stupids Have a Ball, and The Stupids Die. And, of course, they are the
creators of the famous Miss Nelson Is Missing!, which has won the Arizona
Young Readers Award, the Georgia Children's Picture Storybook Award and most
recently, the California Young Reader Medal Award.

The vision must be followed by the venture. It is not enough to
stare up the steps - we must step up the stairs.
