The kids in Room 207 were misbehaving again. Spitballs stuck to the ceiling. Paper planes whizzing through the air. They were the worst-behaved class in the whole school.

So begins this quirky classic, first published in 1977 and still relevant today as a lighthearted reminder to show our appreciation to those we value. The students don’t proffer a shred of respect for their good-natured teacher Miss Nelson, but when the witchy substitute Miss Viola Swamp appears on the scene, they start to regret their own wicked ways. James Marshall’s scritchy, cartoonish full-color ink and wash illustrations are hilarious. A back-to-school perennial!

The kids in Room 207 were misbehaving again. Spitballs stuck to the ceiling. Paper planes whizzing through the air. They were the worst-behaved class in the whole school.

So…

When their teacher has to go away for a week, the kids in Room 207 plan to "really act up."

The notorious Miss Swamp reappears at the Horace B. Smedley School, this time to shape up the football team and help them to win at least one game.

Late one Friday the 13th in November, Miss Nelson gets an alarming anonymous telephone call. She then takes an ill-starred short cut through the dilapidated and soon-to-be-razed Old East Wing. There she stumbles upon something that almost unhinges her mind and that causes her to swoon. But luckily for her, exactly one week later, and at the very same hour and in the very same spot, an old friend of hers surfaces who, putting her shoulder to the wheel, quickly unmasks the malevolent telephone caller who is bound and determined to oust Miss Nelson from Room 207, nudging her into early retirement, and —with luck— sending her packing to a
hospital, clinic, or cozy nursing home specializing in nerve cases.

The plot foiled, both Miss Nelson and her tenebrous alter ego, Miss Swamp, turn up trumps again and carry the day.
