Bookroo's summary
Mrs. Hartwell, determined to avoid past field trip chaos, leads her class to the zoo armed with rules and a just-in-case bag. But as students focus on writing rather than observing, chaos ensues with hay bales, elephant water, and parrot droppings. Realizing the trip's missing fun, Mrs. Hartwell collects the notes, encouraging her class to truly experience the zoo. Will this change save the day and bring joy back to their adventure? Join the class as they discover the wild side of learning, with unexpected twists and laughter along the way.
From the publisher
Sarah Jane Hartwell and her class are back. After the stress of her last attempt at taking her class on a field trip (seen in First Year Letters), Mrs. Hartwell has a plan for an upcoming trip to the zoo—a plan that includes a lot of rules. Her students prove that they can line up straight, walk quietly, and take plenty of notes, but everyone soon realizes that this field trip isn’t as much fun as they’d hoped. Mrs. Hartwell rethinks her plan and saves the day.
