The Noisy Classroom Goes to the Museum (The Noisy Classroom, 2)
Written by Angela Shanté & illustrated by Alison Hawkins
The follow-up to the bestselling book The Noisy Classroom, this new adventure explores how creative thinking can lead to fun and unexpected surprises.
Ms. Johnson is a bit, well, odd. So when she announces she’s taking the class on a field trip to the natural history museum, one young girl can’t help but worry. Everyone at school already knows Ms. Johnson, but what will strangers think of her? As the day of the field trip draws nearer, the girl and her friends decide to hatch a plan for their teacher’s sake.
From the same award-winning team who had brought you the first book, The Noisy Classroom Goes to the Museum playfully combines science and humor in this new adventure of Ms. Johnson and her noisy class.
