Buckle up for a wild ride involving a missing gerbil, a crazy cat, and a tattooed baby that will have readers of all ages laughing! This hilarious novel stars the Herdmans, the worst kids in the world, who made their first appearance in author Barbara Robinson’s classic The Best Christmas Pageant Ever. In The Best School Year Ever, Imogene, Claude, Ralph, Leroy, Ollie, and Gladys Herdman haven’t changed a bit. They still set things on fire and knock the other kids black and blue. One day the teachers ask all the students to think of compliments for their classmates, and Beth Bradley picks Imogene Herdman’s name. At first, Beth can’t think of anything good, but soon she begins to see Imogene in a new light. Maybe behind all of the outrageous pranks, there is something good about the Herdmans?

The Herdmans plus Halloween have always spelled disaster. Every year these six kids — the worst in the history of Woodrow Wilson School, and possibly even the world — wreak havoc on the whole town. They steal candy, spray-paint kids, and take anything that’s not nailed down. Now the mayor has had it. He’s decided to cancel Halloween. There won’t be any Herdmans to contend with this year, but there won’t be any candy, either. And what’s Halloween without candy? And without trick-or-treating? The Herdmans manage to turn the worst Halloween ever into the best Halloween ever in this uproarious sequel to The Best Christmas Pageant Ever.
