''Genies Don't Ride Bicycles'' is the eighth installment in the ''Literature/BaileySchoolKids'' series, released in November 1993.
After the kids find a bottle stuck in a tree and open it, a man named Eugene comes to town. The kids, wondering if he's a djinn, make wishes - which start coming true.
----
!!The book provides examples of:
* BaldMystic: Eugene, the [[MaybeMagicMaybeMundane possible]] genie.
* JackassGenie: Averted, if Eugene is indeed a genie - he doesn't [[BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor exploit]] people's wishes at all.
* MagicalNegro: Eugene, the possible genie, is a dark-skinned man.
* MeaningfulName: The possible genie is named Eugene.
* TookALevelInCheerfulness: Mrs. Jeepers suddenly becomes very chipper and starts doing stuff like handing out candy to the kids during class as Christmas approaches. While the kids originally love this change in demeanor from her usual iciness, Mrs. Jeepers quickly goes overboard and starts to get annoying. She thankfully reverts to normal by the end of the book.
