Dr. Carbles is Losing His Marbles
The My Weird School series is aimed at young children, and doesn't go much beyond that audience. The principal and the school board chair are both skateboarders, though the principal still maintains his quirkiness. He is fired due to a runaway turkey. Dr. Carbles takes over and remakes the school with military discipline. However, when he finds out the former principal mentioned his toupee, he challenges him to a skateboarding duel. And who should walk in after they crash, but the county school boss, who fires Carbles and restores the superintendent.
The book is filled with puns and misheard words (including many that are repeated over and over and over again.) There are better kids books out there.
