| Summary |
It all started with a homework assignment-write a story for class. Louis Sachar created the evil Mrs. Gorf, and from her sprang Sideways Stories from Wayside School. A door-to-door salesman, a factory worker, and a part-time lawyer, Sachar's true passion became writing hilarity and hijinks. Find out how the author of Holes became a household name. |
