Bernie Bridges, the hero of Rotten School, is sneaky and manipulative; his only redeeming quality is that he's not spoiled like his archenemy, Sherman Oaks. Stine doesn't bother to make Bernie likable, just clever. Stine knows plot, and he takes every chance to deliver easy, bad jokes that will make readers laugh. Black-and-white pictures illustrate each chapter. Stickers are appended.

Master of horror R.L. Stine returns to his comedy roots in this laugh-out-loud, rotten-to-the-core, wildly popular chapter book series about the crazy antics at Rotten School!
Bernie Bridges, the most popular fourth grader at Rotten School, has got it made with loyal friends, a girlfriend (even if she pretends she’s not), and even a heated waterbed! But what Bernie doesn’t have is a solid-gold digital watch with forty-two functions like his archrival Sherman Oaks.
But Bernie has a plan to get it. Bernie always has a plan! It’s time for a blueberry pie eating contest. Winner takes all!
Packed with three dozen hilariously disgusting half-tone illustrations by Trip Park, readers won’t be able to resist the madness at Rotten School—where good is good, bad is better, and rotten is the absolute best!
