Description

The book follows a middle school student navigating a weekend while discovering universal truths about life, such as how weekends always seem to start ten minutes after the Friday bell rings. The story explores the relationship between a young person and their parents, who are always right even when they appear wrong. Set during a typical school week and weekend, the book humorously depicts the experience of growing up and learning life's lessons.
