Answer:

When an author advises — as Louis Sachar does in the foreword to WAYSIDE SCHOOL BENEATH THE CLOUD OF DOOM (Harper/HarperCollins, 192 pp., $17.99; ages 8 to 12), the fourth volume of his Wayside School series — that “to fully enjoy this book, you should read the other three first,” believe him. This absurd and absurdist series, about a 30-story elementary school with one classroom on each floor, has seen a new addition only once every decade or two since its inception in 1978, but it has still generated enough fan-feeding mythology to fill its own wiki. While it’s certainly not impossible for “Cloud of Doom” to serve as an introduction for newcomers, it is eminently more enjoyable as a follow-up.

Having said that, this new book is more than just a collection of running gags (though there are plenty of those, including the payoffs to several jokes that began 40 years ago). The original “Sideways Stories From Wayside School” was structured as an anthology of 30 short stories, and each subsequent volume has followed that pattern. As the series evolved, the stories became increasingly interconnected — more like true chapters than stand-alone vignettes — and this newest installment reads far more like a novel, with one prominent plotline tying most of the “stories” together. Here, it’s the titular cloud that provides the connective tissue, as it hovers over the school for days, bringing all sorts of bad mojo to the comically unflappable students and staff.
