Les Desirable: Not My Fault - Middle School Karen S McGowan

I'm Les Desirable. Don't laugh. That's my real name. And my teacher, Mrs. Mudhole, won't let me forget it. I'm a world famous news reporter. While most kids my age are breaking wind, I'm always looking for breaking news.

The plan to have my teacher move into a nursing home backfires. And I don't want to write a silly poem! This sounds like heavy lifting! I'm too fragile to think this hard. I'm saved from this yucky fate when Mom tells me that we're moving. Hooray! WAIT A MINUTE! I don't want to move! I leave my friends and start a new school-with the biggest and ugliest hairy bully in the world. A famous reporter's life is tough. I often run into challenges. Do you know what I mean?

Les Desirable: Not My Fault is a funny and entertaining story for children ages 9 - 12, middle school students, and adults who are still young at heart.
