“After an extended break, Wayside School will soon be back in session, as Mrs. Jewls’s classroom again springs to life in Wayside School: Beneath the Cloud of Doom, illustrated by Tim Heitz. Due out next March from HarperCollins, it will be Louis Sachar’s first addition to the series since 1995’s Wayside School Gets a Little Stranger. The series has sold more than 15 million copies in the U.S. since its 1978 debut with Sideways Stories from Wayside School. Rosemary Brosnan, v-p and editorial director of HarperCollins Children’s Books, acquired world rights to Beneath the Cloud of Doom from Ellen Levine, executive v-p of Trident Media Group.”
