Ep. 83 - Wayside School is Falling Down

This morning’s episode Anna and Austin review and discuss the 2001 Children’s Chapter book Wayside School is Falling Down and It was written by Louis Sachar. Similar to Sideways Stories from Wayside School, the chapters follow an episodic nature, following the various students and teachers at Wayside School, though a few adjustments are made to the formula. Some chapters, like "Pigtails," "Kathy and D.J.," and "Teeth" focus on multiple students to make way for story arcs for Allison and the new student Benjamin Nushmutt. Aside from Benjamin, new characters like Mr. Kidswatter are introduced, establishing new character dynamics. For the most part, though, the book largely features the same format.RIFK is a comedy children’s books club podcast where twice a month Anna and Austin read & review children’s books and sometimes comics like they are the works of art they are! Tune in almost every other Saturday to this comedy book club podcast!Support the lovely people who created stuff for the show:Artwork created by UmangihIntro Music created by Gianlu_composesJoin our Patreon to support the show and get ad-free podcast episodes, exclusive voting power on upcoming episodes, full access to our exclusive Patron Discord, and get access to a secret podcast called Ask Anna & Austin where we take Patron questions or read questions off the internet!
