When the substitute for Mr. "Fab" Fabiano never shows up and his sixth-grade students are on their own, they set out to prove that they can run the class by themselves. With a little ingenuity and some careful planning, they might just succeed. But when a fight breaks out between Bastian Fauvell and Rachel White over a classmate, Tommy Feathers, who died six months earlier, everything begins to fall apart. Can Rachel deal with the anxieties that plunged her into silence the day Tommy died? Inventive and uniquely constructed, "Flying Solo" follows Mr. Fab's students hour by hour as they tackle the challenges of an unusual school day.

This book is great. It shows how kids can act mature when no teachers are around.I would rate it at a five stars because it has drama, comedy, and it shows how hard you have to try if you want to succeed. They go through hard times and they still make it through the whole day. It would be fun to imagine yourself with no teacher for a whole day.
I would reccomend this book to a class. Read it as a class because it is about a class. Imagine your'e teacher and sub not showing up for school. PURE FUN!!!!
