    About If I Built a School

    In this exuberant companion to If I Built a Car, a boy fantasizes about his dream school–from classroom to cafeteria to library to playground.


    My school will amaze you. My school will astound.
    By far the most fabulous school to be found!
    Perfectly planned and impeccably clean.
    On a scale, 1 to 10, it’s more like 15!
    And learning is fun in a place that’s fun, too.

    If Jack built a school, there would be hover desks and pop-up textbooks, skydiving wind tunnels and a trampoline basketball court in the gym, a robo-chef to serve lunch in the cafeteria, field trips to Mars, and a whole lot more. The inventive boy who described his ideal car and house in previous books is dreaming even bigger this time.
