Ian never thought he would have to go to reform school. After developing a good sense of how to stay out of sight and out of mind for the general school population and particularly bullies, he somehow finds himself blamed along with others for a serious prank against a new student. When he is sent to reform school, Ian has no idea how to handle the dance class, service projects, or an even larger number of bullies. Maybe he can get help from Thomas Edison (the late inventor with whom he occasionally speaks to in his head) or his new friends at reform school. This book was confusing at the beginning. With first-person point of view, Weinberger drops you in Ian's brain and hopes you can swim. The conversations with Thomas Edison were pretty strange, and it was hard at first to keep up with the characters. However, once you get into the book, it's a nice, light-hearted read, similar to Diary of a Wimpy Kid.
