Who would like this book? Both boys and girls, grades 6 and up, would like this book.
The goods on this book: The main character is named Oliver. He is a genius, and he is 12. He is the third richest person in the world and not many people know that, not even his family. In school everybody thinks he’s idiotic. He has bodyguards at school that protect him from boys. He loves his mom but despises his dad. His dad doesn’t like him very much because he thinks he’s idiotic. Oliver wants to be the class president because his dad was the class president when he was a kid. His dad was talking about how much it meant to him. Oliver wants to do it because it would mess up his dad’s entire childhood. I really love this book because it’s hilarious but has a bit of a serious side to it. It has a bit of bad language but besides that it’s all okay.
