by Louis Sachar




While Holes and the Wayside School series are Louis Sachar’s most popular books, There’s a Boy in the Girls’ Bathroom has been lodged in my chest ever since I first read it. It’s the story of Bradley Chalkers, a boy island in a sea of empty desks. You know the one. He’s pushed everyone so far away, nobody can reach him. When a quirky guidance counselor named Carla arrives at their school, Bradley finally starts to open up—until Carla’s progressive methods turn the old-school PTA against her. The book’s silly title belies its enduring themes of open-mindedness, kindness, and the transformative power of empathy. Sure, you’ll laugh—this is Louis Sachar, after all. But you’ll also find yourself forever devastated by a tiny plastic rabbit with a broken ear. I’m still writing from that place, I think: striving to break hearts beautifully, but more importantly, to open them.
