Excerpts:
THIS IS FICTION
Before: My teacher is mean.
After: "Lina, get over here to the board and answer 10,374 X 687,543! Everyone else, open up to page googol and start working. Come on, chop, chop, let's go! We don't have all day." Mrs. McGuigan's face was purple, contorted with rage.
As I went to the board, Eli muttered, "This book only has one zillion pages."
"Then get the next volume!" Mrs. M yelled. She threw a big, far purple book on Eli's desk.
