Olivia ("Miss O") wakes up on the first day of the school year with a bad feeling. Not even dressed yet, she starts dreading the first day. She has been assigned to the worst teacher in the school - Mrs. Hintermeister ("the Hinter Monster"). To top things off, none of her friends are in her class! Miss O knows she's in for a long year when she steps into class one minute late and almost gets detention. A few days later, Miss O's friend Isabella breaks the news that while Googling the other night, she came across a picture of the Hinter Monster with a caption saying "Local Teacher Behind Bars!" Olivia has an exciting year ahead of her unraveling the mystery behind her teacher's mug shot, entering her one-of-a-kind oatmeal cookie recipe in a baking contest, and dealing with a suddenly obnoxious older sister. How will her cookies turn out? Will she survive fifth grade with the Hinter Monster? Check out Miss O and Friends: Trouble with a Capital O to find out!

Opinion: 

I really liked this book. It seemed like it was about a girl exactly like me. Miss O has all these encouraging friends, and this story seems like everything could really take place. I recommend this book to 10- to 12-year-old girls, especially fifth graders. This book is about relationships among friends and family members, and when siblings have trouble getting along. I think girls my age will get a lot out of this book.
