class critters 2

out now in hardcover, paperback, ebook, and audiobook

When Mrs. Norrell invites her students to bring something they love from home for Show and Tell, David Dixon sneaks in his new dachshund puppy, Bandit. But during the presentation, the puppy escapes. David races off into the school building by himself to find Bandit. As he runs away from Mrs. Norrell’s classroom, David turns into a dachshund!

At first, he’s delighted by the transformation. He tracks down Bandit, and the two of them have a blast eating the day’s lunch, jumping in the suds-filled sink, and running around on the playground. But he doesn’t want to be a dog forever . . .

In the Class Critters chapter book series for ages 6–9, Mrs. Norrell’s second-grade classroom has magic that allows kids to transform into animals to learn life lessons. Each book will follow a different kid and their animal adventure, and will include fun natural science facts about the featured animal in the back matter.
