The Teacher's Funeral

Now that Russell's teacher's done passed away, maybe Hominy Ridge School will be shut down for good and he can light out for the endless skies of the Dakotas to join a team of harvesters working the new 1904 all-steel threshing machines. No such luck. Russell and his schoolmates are about to be ruled by a new teacher who is Russell's worst nightmare--his sister. Russell's going to do whatever it takes to sink the school, even if it means resorting to stealing supplies, rustic vandalism, torching a boy's privy, and rustling up more snakes than you can shake a stick at.
