Synopsis

Ms. Frizzle's class arrives early to open the school for Mr. Ruhle. But there's so much to do! "There must be a way to do all of these chores without actually doing them," says Carlos. The school handyman, Mr. McClean is in total agreement. Enter Mr. Ruhle's new computer and Mikey, Carlos' whiz kid brother, who programs it to do all the chores! But when Ms. Frizzle shrinks Mikey and the class and sends them inside the computer for a guided tour, everything goes haywire. The only person who can fix the problem is Mikey- and he's just landed somewhere between the CPU and the hard drive!
