I use R.L. Stein's Rotten School chapter books as an after lunch read aloud, the kids are wound up from the freedom of lunch and they need to "calm down". The Rotten School is funny and irreverent which kids love, but it is about a boarding house so there really aren't any "bad" ideas that the kids could try themselves! I find that the subtle and not so subtle humor in the books is also something the kids need to learn!
