Mrs. Kormel Is Not Normal! Read Online Free Page A

Almost.
    â€œI saw this reality TV show where some people were stranded on a dessert island,” Michael said.
    â€œIt’s not a dessert island, dumbhead,”Andrea turned around to say. “It’s a desert island. One s . ‘Desserts’ is one of our spelling words this week.” Then she held up her dumb flash card with the word “desserts” on it.
    â€œWho asked you?” Ryan asked.
    â€œA dessert island would be cool to be stranded on,” I said. “There would be ice cream and candy and treats everywhere.”
    â€œHey, look,” said Emily, “I just noticed that ‘desserts’ is ‘stressed’ spelled backward.”
    â€œSo what?” asked Ryan. “‘Backward’ is ‘drawkcab’ backward.”
    â€œWho cares what ‘backward’ is backward?” asked Andrea.
    â€œâ€˜Bus’ is ‘sub’ backward,” I mentioned.
    â€œBix blattinger!” shouted Mrs. Kormel. “Will you please zingy zip?”
    I couldn’t blame Mrs. Kormel for being mad. It was a rough day for her. We had to whisper after that.
    â€œHey,” whispered Michael, “I just thought of something. Maybe we’re on a reality TV show right now and we don’t even know it.”
    â€œThat’s impossible,” Ryan whispered. “If we didn’t know we were on a reality TV show, we wouldn’t be talking about us being on a reality TV show.”
    â€œI think Michael is right,” I said, looking around to see if there were any hiddencameras. “Maybe this was all planned in advance for the reality TV show we’re on right now.”
    â€œOh yeah?” said Andrea. “Who planned for you to throw your doll out the window and cause a flat tire?”
    â€œIt’s not a doll!” I said. “Don’t you have any respect for the dead?”
    â€œIf this is a reality TV show,” Ryan said, “we’re going to have to vote somebody off the bus.”
    â€œWhy?” asked Emily.
    â€œBecause that’s what they always do on reality TV shows, dumbhead!” I said. “You vote somebody off and they have to leave.”
    â€œBut why?” asked Emily.
    â€œBecause that’s the rule!” Michael told Emily. She doesn’t know anything about reality TV shows.
    â€œI vote for Andrea,” I said.
    â€œI vote for A.J.,” Andrea said.
    â€œOoooh!” Ryan said. “A.J. and Andrea voted for each other. They must be in love !”
    â€œWhen are you gonna get married?” asked Michael.
    If those guys weren’t my best friends, I would hate them.

Mrs. Kormel Is Driving Us Crazy
    We couldn’t just sit around on the bus forever. Soon we would die of starvation or kill each other, like they do in the movies all the time.
    â€œWe’ve got to do something!” Emily said.
    For once she was right. That’s when Igot the most genius idea in the history of the world. There must have been at least twenty kids on the bus. If we all got out and pushed, maybe we could push the bus out of the ditch!
    I got up and and told Mrs. Kormel about my genius idea. At first she thought I was crazy and told me to go limpus kidoodle. But I guess she thought it over and decided to give it a shot.
    â€œOkay, everybody off the bus!” she yelled.
    We all got off the bus and went to the back.
    â€œWhen I say push, everybody push,” Mrs. Kormel yelled out the window.
    â€œOne…two…three…PUSH!”
    I pushed with all my might. Everybody was grunting and groaning and moaning. The bus didn’t move.
    â€œHarder!” yelled Ryan.
    And then the most amazing thing in the history of the world happened.
    The bus started moving!
    â€œHooray!” everybody yelled.

    Mrs. Kormel steered the bus back onto the road, and we all piled in. She told me my idea was great, and promised to drive carefully the rest of the way to
