A.J. and the other second graders do everything except play sports when they go to "fizz ed" class with their new teacher, Miss Small.

Mr. Macky dresses up as Abraham Lincoln to get the students at Ella Mentry School excited about their Presidents' Day oral reports.

It's Thanksgiving! A.J. is thankful for four days off from school. But he's not thankful for Dr. Carbles, who is grumpier than ever. Dr. Carbles even fires Mr. Klutz! Will A.J. and his friends be able to save their principal's job?

Miss Daisy's unusual teaching methods surprise her second grade students, especially reluctant learner A.J.

"Mr. Klutz is retiring! (A surprise even to him, courtesy of scheming Dr. Carbles.) Vice principal Mrs. Jafee thinks it's her time to shine, but Dr. Carbles has hired someone else for the job! Stand-up comedian Mrs. Stoker is ready to defend her place as principal in a joke-off against Mrs. Jafee. Will Mrs. Stoker have the last laugh? Or will she lose her audience when things get serious?"--Provided by publisher.

Second grade graduation turns into a full-blown spectacle when an overzealous PTA president pulls out all the stops for A.J. and his classmates on the last day of school.

A.J.'s class is going head-to-head against Dirk School in a charity softball game. The losing team must clean the winning school's toilet with a toothbrush! Mr. Ott, retired baseball pro, intends to lead Ella Mentry School to victory, but will his weird tactics actually make the team lose?

Finally old enough to participate in after-school clubs, all run by Mrs. Marge, A.J. and his crew are faced with such wacky options as Lawn Mower Racing Club, Underwater Hockey Club and People Who Hate Clubs Club!
