Our Review

This latest installment in the popular early chapter book series tackles the topic of school safety with its signature blend of absurd humor and relatable school scenarios. When a series of exaggerated mishaps plagues Ella Mentry School, a safety expert named Mrs. Granger arrives, promising to protect the kids from every conceivable danger. Young readers will be immediately drawn into the over-the-top chaos, from imagined elephant landings to more believable bike spills, all while learning subtle lessons about cause and effect. The narrative cleverly uses these hyperbolic situations to explore the concept of risk in a child's world, making it an engaging read for kids navigating their own playground politics.

Fans of the series will delight in the familiar, fast-paced dialogue and the return of beloved, quirky characters like Principal Stoker. What makes this book particularly effective is how it balances its primary goal of making children laugh with a secondary, educational layer about personal responsibility and reasonable precautions. The story is perfectly pitched for newly independent readers who are ready for longer chapters but still appreciate frequent illustrations and a high joke-per-page ratio. It’s a winning formula that turns a lesson on safety into a genuinely fun and memorable adventure.
