分章摘要 · 12 章
Ch.1 The H Word and the L Word:A.J.和朋友们在上学路上遇见交通管理员Mr. Louie,他总是说着“groovy”“love”等嬉皮士词汇。为了让Mr. Louie不向别人宣扬自己“爱”Andrea,A.J.只好小声承认“我爱学校”。
Ch.2 I Hate Love:学校举行集会庆祝情人节,Mr. Klutz戴着假发登台,请来Mr. Louie教大家爱与和平。Mr. Louie唱了只有“love”的傻歌,A.J.偏要和Andrea唱反调,宣称“我恨爱,我爱恨”。
Ch.3 Have Your Cake and Eat It, Too:同学们互写情人节卡片,A.J.写的卡片都很刻薄,尤其气哭了Emily、惹恼了Andrea。吃蛋糕时A.J.把蛋糕掰成两半,吃一半、把另一半砸在Andrea头上,还捡起掉地上的蛋糕吃掉。
Ch.4 The Power of Love:Mr. Louie说只要用“爱的力量”闭眼专注,就能让学校飘起来。孩子们闭眼尝试,睁眼后学校仍纹丝不动,但Mr. Louie坚称他看到学校离地两英尺了。A.J.认定Mr. Louie脑子不正常。
Ch.5 The Love Machine:电脑老师Mrs. Yonkers发明了“爱之机器”,通过脑电波显示你爱什么、恨什么。轮到A.J.时机器竟说“我爱Andrea”,全班哄笑,A.J.恨不得逃到南极和企鹅住。
Ch.6 Klutzstock:情人节当天学校举办“Klutzstock”音乐节,老师们轮流表演,惊喜嘉宾是扮成摇滚乐队KISS的四位老师。Mr. Louie悄悄告诉A.J.,他在饮水机里下了“爱情药水”,大家一直在喝。
Ch.7 Kissing Is Gross:得知水里有爱情药水后男孩们吐了出来,但A.J.还是忍不住吻了Andrea。药水让全场疯狂接吻——同学、老师、家长都开始亲吻,A.J.觉得这是世界上最糟的情人节。
Ch.8 Teachers in Love:女孩们八卦说Miss Daisy和Mr. Macky在谈恋爱,还被撞见牵手。当大家当面追问时,Mr. Macky当众吻了Miss Daisy,并宣布他俩下周日就要结婚。
Ch.9 Mrs. Dacky and Mr. Maisy:原来Miss Daisy和Mr. Macky已秘密恋爱许久,在Klutzstock上Mr. Macky求婚成功。女孩们兴奋筹划婚礼,A.J.却认定这是爱情药水的错,召集男孩们要阻止婚礼。
Ch.10 Sabotage!:男孩们企图用各种离谱谎言(如Mr. Macky有六只蹼脚、抢过银行)破坏婚礼,结果Miss Daisy和Mr. Macky毫不在意, sabotge彻底失败。Mr. Louie说“爱无法阻挡”。
Ch.11 My Genius Ideas:婚礼当天男孩们先抗议、又试图用“爱之力量”让Mr. Louie飘走,均告失败。A.J.最后喊出“没有爱情药水”,Mr. Louie承认一直只是开玩笑——这意味着A.J.吻Andrea是发自内心,他真的爱她。
Ch.12 Happily Ever After:婚礼结束,孩子们扔大米庆祝,A.J.把米砸在Andrea脸上。A.J.无奈接受自己可能真的爱Andrea,并幻想种种以后会发生的事,但“让东西飘起来”可没那么容易。
