Who I'd Vote For!





Review by Marsh
     Oliver Watson is a strange, pathetic 7th grader, but what none of his classmates know is the has a huge, multi-billion dollar, underground empire--right under his bedroom floor.  He wants to enter the election for 8th grade president.  He has a few tricks up his sleeve . . .
     This book was super humorous, especially the descriptions of the teachers.  I also really liked that Oliver had a secret stash of Milk Duds in the out of order toilet.  My favorite character was Mr. Moorhead.  I loved the way Oliver played around with Moorhead's love life and how he tried to help him get a date with a woman who could ruin his life.
     This was a superb book.  I give it 5 Monsters.

“According to the fortune-cookie logic most people live by, the best things in life are free. That's crap. I have a gold-plated robot that scratches the exact part of my back where my hands can't reach, and it certainly wasn't free.”

I got this book as a gift (hint, hint), but you can find it at your favorite Indie Bookstore.
