Imagine going to school and there was no teacher. You go in your classroom and there are only kids . You have no one to teach you to throw out the school day. In the book Flying Solo by Ralph Fletcher , the characters have to deal with a whole day without a teacher . The book has illustrations too. The setting of the book is mainly in school . The antagonist in the Flying Solo is Rachel Wright. She is a selective mute and hasn't talked for six months. If you like a book that gets you to the edge of your set then you'll like this book. I think this book would be appropriate for kids 5th grade and up.
