Chapter 11 Summary: “Jack, Wednesday, May 2”

Jack’s dad comes home after two weeks away at work, and Uncle Sid comes over to celebrate and share a turkey dinner. When Jack overhears his dad and uncle talking about a petition for the Second Amendment, it gives him the idea to collect signatures to keep the school’s state funding. Jack tells his father about his idea, and his father approves. Uncle Sid adds that they must also convince the newly merged school board, which is likely more motivated by profit than anything. Jack’s dad thinks about how trying to fight against the state is like being David against Goliath, but Jack reminds him that Goliath won. He hopes to help his school and make his dad proud.

Chapter 12 Summary: “Vincent, Wednesday, May 2”

Vincent wakes up dreading school and spends a few minutes with his mom as she gets ready for work. Vincent goes into the kitchen to have some of his favorite Puffins brand cereal and reads the back of the box, which has information about puffins. He learns that they ride the waves and use their wings to glide through the water. He admires puffins and wants to be able to “ride the waves” of his life with the same ease.
