About this ebook

Seven students are about to have their lives changed by one amazing teacher in this school story sequel filled with unique characters every reader can relate to.

It’s the start of a new year at Snow Hill School, and seven students find themselves thrown together in Mr. Terupt’s fifth grade class. There’s . . . Jessica, the new girl, smart and perceptive, who’s having a hard time fitting in; Alexia, a bully, your friend one second, your enemy the next; Peter, class prankster and troublemaker; Luke, the brain; Danielle, who never stands up for herself; shy Anna, whose home situation makes her an outcast; and Jeffrey, who hates school.
 
They don’t have much in common, and they’ve never gotten along. Not until a certain new teacher arrives and helps them to find strength inside themselves—and in each other. But when Mr. Terupt suffers a terrible accident, will his students be able to remember the lessons he taught them? Or will their lives go back to the way they were before—before fifth grade and before Mr. Terupt?

Find out what happens in sixth and seventh grades in Mr. Terupt Falls Again and Saving Mr. Terupt. And don't miss the conclusion to the series, Goodbye, Mr. Terupt, coming soon!

"The characters are authentic and the short chapters are skillfully arranged to keep readers moving headlong toward the satisfying conclusion."--School Library Journal, Starred

One of the reasons why I love this book i because there is so many different people telling the story in all sorts of angles. But I am not a big fan of how the chapters aren't very long

Super Surprises!! Terupt in a coma and came back by the end of the story and the coma is because of Peter throwing the ice ball. Can't wait to read the next book. MR.TERUPT FALLS AGAIN AND AFTER THAT SAVING MR.TERUPT. Mr. Terupt in a coma and students visit him and saw machines beeping and his chest going up and down with every single machanical breath. And he was back in teacher clothes and couldn't wait to see his class in the fall. 🙂 The school year in this book was filled with sadness and happiness. All of this in 1 book. DRAMA, SADNESS, AND ANGER. Lovely. 🤬🤯🤓

It's sad at times, then funny, then makes you frustrated. (Not in a bad way.) I'm reading it with my literature teacher at school and it's amazing! If I could put 1,000 stars, I would!
