Many of us have heard the story of the man who caused an explosion when he dropped his lighted cigarette into the toilet, not knowing that his wife had squirted hair spray there moments earlier. This and many other humorous anecdotes enliven this collection of urban legends. Daly-Weir nicely frames these tales in the setting of a school day at Lake Homily Middle School. Students, parents, teachers and even the bus driver each take the stage to relate a "true" humorous story. There is plenty of bathroom humor here, but nothing overly offensive. Real life teachers would do well to share one or two incidents on a weekly basis with a deserving class. Kids will utterly enjoy them. Well-crafted illustrations will draw laughs as well.
