Everyone hates homework. Everyone loves plot twists. Everyone loves happy endings. Therefore, this book may be the perfect read. Taking place in Illinois in the year 2019, this story will have you glued to your seat until the very end. From homework poisoning to an epic rescue, 14-year-old Roberto Siliven and his friends will go to all odds to get rid of homework, and with the help of a few peers, they succeed. A mysterious doctor who saves them from imprisonment, a loathsome teacher who is actually a murderer, an insidious boy with some radical change for the better, the teacher of the funnest detention ever, and a depressed but loyal boy are just some of the characters this book has to offer. When Roberto receives a letter from a mysterious person, his teacher believes it is the key to banning homework. Roberto, Eric, Avi, and Menachem embark on a journey they will never forget. From traffic delays to splinters, from Springfield to Charles Mound, from trap doors to prisons, from betrayals to forgeries, and from rescues to countless plot twists, the boys succeed. The villain gets his ramifications, the boys get rewarded, and the school turns into the envy of the town. If any of this appeals to you, this is a must-read.
