Sam Graves really didn't want to be the hall monitor at Eerie Elementary. The bright orange sash was embarrassing enough -- but now he has to watch his classmates to make sure they really go to class on time? No fun at all!
But Sam never expected the job of hall monitor to be something so dangerous that it would actually threaten to kill him! One day, Sam discovers quicksand on the playground, and he is nearly drowned as something in the sand seemed to grab him and pull him under the sand into the darkness. The next thing he knows, Eerie Elementary actually turns out to be ALIVE! And, the school seems to be MAD -- and ready to really hurt (or maybe kill?) all of the students!
Sam is the only one who can sense when Eerie Elementary is about to attack -- but can a little hall monitor really stand up against a big, evil school?
THE SCHOOL IS ALIVE is the first in a new Scholastic series called BRANCHES, a series intended for younger readers who are ready to enjoy their first easy chapter books. The story is fast paced enough to keep young minds enthralled, and the adorable illustrations really added a special something to the overall story.
This was a cute, quick read, and I'm sure I'll pick up others in the future if I happen to come across them in my library.
(I did receive a free advanced reader's copy of this novel in order to provide an honest review. All thoughts are my own and are uninfluenced by the manner in which the book was received)
