School of Fear (School of Fear #1)
Madeleine Masterson is deathly afraid of bugs, especially spiders.
Theodore Bartholomew is petrified of dying.
Lulu Punchalower is scared of confined spaces.
Garrison Feldman is terrified of deep water.
With very few options left, the parents of these four twelve year-olds send them to the highly elusive and exclusive School of Fear to help them overcome their phobias. But when their peculiar teacher, Mrs. Wellington, and her unconventional teaching methods turn out to be more frightening than even their fears, the foursome realize that this just may be the scariest summer of their lives.
Humorous, well written, twisty novel that left me wanting another semester!
REVIEWI can describe School of Fear in one word.wait for it.QUIRKY! I bet you thought I was going to say spooky or scary or phobias or fearful. It has those too, but its mostly quirky. And I really like quirky.The four main characters are children with serious phobias. So serious, in fact, that their parents have sent them to the School of Fear to be cured. My favorite character was Madeleine She was smart and soft-spoken, but she also had a major fear of bugs especially spiders. I can relate
I decided to downsize the books in my house. I have been paring down and reading and came to several of my daughter's books. I read a lot of nonfiction so this was a nice change. A quick journey with Gitty DAneshvari. All four of the students have epic phobias and The School of Fear and her headmistress Miss Wellington will fix the phobias right quick. A fun read with, a lot of laughs especially in the second half of the book as the students must rely on each other if they are to graduate!
What are you afraid of?It may be spiders, death, confined spaces, or even large areas of water?Whatever it is just remember, everyone is afraid of something. The cover and name of School of Fear, by Gitty Daneshvari, makes the book look scary and serious. But before I was finished with the first page I knew it was a carefree, silly book. There is a wide range of characters from the normal, sports loving Garrison Feldman to the odd, brainiac Madeleine Masterson. Meet the thoughtful, strange
Quite enjoyable TBCD for a drive down hwy 101. I've always been fascinated by phobias. Personally, I'm afraid of clowns/interactive performers/performances and loud noises (can't stand fireworks, balloons, suspense involving a gun going off, etc.). As a kid, I thought myself very unusual for not liking typically kid-beloved things (clowns, balloons). Anyway, that may or may not be the reason I enjoyed this book. Irrational fears are fascinating.School of Fear is about four kids who are forced to
