Ed Special: (Special Edward)

Par Eric Walters

Edward is a classic slacker. He's got better ways to spend his time than toiling over homework, and as long as he gets passing grades he's happy. When his fifty percent average is threatened he has to find a way to pull up his grades without applying himself. Edward discovers that special education students get more time to complete tests, and he thinks he's found the perfect scam. Little does he know that manipulating everyone around him will take more work than he ever imagined.

Avis sur Ed Special

[meggyweg · Évaluation : 4 sur 5 étoiles]

Okay, this was a little bit too let's-teach-the-reader-a-lesson for my taste, but I can totally see something like this happening in real life, and Edward was a charming little rascal. It's also quite age-appropriate for middle schoolers, which I think is the demographic Orca Currents books are supposed to target.
