Apple Island, or The Truth about Teachers

Do you want to know the truth about your teacher(s)? Bradley can help you with that! Well in the book APPLE ISLAND OR THE TRUTH ABOUT TEACHERS, by Douglas Evans. I think that 6-12 year old children should read this book! It is a thrilling book. If you like realistic fiction story then you should read this. I like the pictures in the book; also it has a lot of funny sayings in it about the teacher!! The setting is in the school and in the Apple Island!!! Bradley gets a little feeling (okay or maybe a BIG feeling) about his teacher, Mrs. Gross. "She is teaching all the wrong stuff on purpose," says Bradley." Here's an example: come "Take out the E because its silent, there is no point of an E so why write an E?" Mrs. Gross is a very weird teacher. Duncan, (Bradley's best friend,) thinks that Bradley has gone wild because he has been sneaking into the teachers lounge and has been saying things about Mrs. Gross. Mrs. Gross does something really nice to her class for the very first time! She has taken her class on a field trip to Apple Island. When the kids heard that they had no idea what their teacher was saying! Now if you think that Apple Island is a very nice, hot looking beach well...ITS NOT! It's just full of teachers, school work and work that would remind you of school. So if you ever hear or come across Apple Island don't go there!! I hope your teachers don't act or take you to Apple Island!

Here is a fantasy that has everything--humor, excitement, and a great plot. Teachers should read this book to their classes. Their students would love it. I read it two times to get all the humor. I hope your teacher does not have purple ankles or you might be in trouble.

So many fantasies nowadays have the same wizards or witches or magical spells. Apple Island is a completely original fantasy that tells about an island where all the things we find a school come from, including teachers! Prince Apple is the ruler of the island. Get it? It's funny the whole way through! I like Bradley the hero of the story because he's not an orphan or mistreated. He's just an average boy who has a great adventure. I hope there will be more books about Apple Island and Bradley.

This book is the best book any teacher has read in class. That's because it's about teachers, and where they come from. This boy Bradley must cross Apple Island and not get caught by the 1000 crabby teachers. Along the way he crosses the world's biggest playground and through the minds where crayons come from. Prince Apple rules the island and I thought that name is a good one. I hope the author writes another book about Apple Island!

This is a very clever, well-written fantasy. Apple Island, the place where all teachers come, has an enormous playground, mines of crayon wax and a lake filled with ink. No magic or wizards here, only teachers and the things they brought with them to America to build the first S.C.H.O.O.L.
