The Unlucky Lottery Winners of Classroom 13 by Honest Lee & Matthew J. Gilbert

Unlucky Ms. Linda is the teacher of Classroom 13.  She is possibly the most unlucky person in the world . . . until the day she wins $28,000,000,000 in the lottery.

She splits the money equally with the students in her class.  They proceed to buy what they've always wanted . . .

Emma buys cats.
Ximena buys monuments.
Jacob buys a new family.
Chloe donates everything to charity.

But do these purchases make their lives better . . . or worse?


This book would be great for children who enjoyed the Sideways Stories from Wayside School.  The book is set up in a very similar fashion with each short chapter focusing on one student.  It's also slightly humorous in its stories.
