Cara starts a newspaper called "The Landry News."  She writes an editorial about how he isn't teaching in the class.  When Mr. Larson sees Cara's writing, he doesn't like what she wrote about him, but he sees that her newspaper was very good.  This excites him and he starts teaching journalism in the class.  Cara is the editor, and the class writes stories for the newspaper.

The principal read the editorial about Mr. Larson and then a story about divorce in the newspaper.  The principal tries to fire Mr. Larson and the class fights to keep him.

This book is easy to read and the story goes fast.  Most students will like it, because it is about teachers and their students.  It also teaches that no matter how bad things get, if you want something bad enough, there is a way to get it.  You just have to keep trying.  Also if you are bored with something, you should try to find something interesting about it.
