About This Book

A spirited boarding-school youth returns to Oak Hall and navigates family reunions, lingering mysteries about his parentage, and the everyday trials of school life. He and his classmates contend with pranks, snowbound escapades, athletic contests, a bully's reform, and an episode of theft that tests loyalties. Through teamwork, quick thinking, and a growing sense of responsibility he helps defend the school's honor, settles personal doubts, and matures alongside friends during episodic adventures that blend humor, danger, and moral lessons.
