Students, kids, and life-long readers,
By looking at the cover of this book, you may notice the clear separation of two lunches from the cafeteria and two authors. This leads to the premise of this book with two very different main characters struggling with school, Joe and Ravi. Ravi has recently moved from India to America due to his father's change of jobs. Ravi is very intellectual, athletic, and has enjoyed school throughout his life. But school in America is not going as planned for Ravi; especially with trying to become friends with Dillon who happens to be a bully to Joe. Our other main character Joe struggles with school, especially with reading and reading out loud in class, and with having friends. To make matters worse, his mother has taken a job in the school cafeteria and cause more problems for Joe.
Joe and Ravi appear to have little in common, but a single mission will bring them together over the course of this crazy week in school.
