A parent might reach for this book when their child feels crushed by the weight of school expectations or feels they have no voice in their own education. It is an ideal pick for the student who questions the 'why' behind every assignment and needs to see that activism can be both productive and intellectual. The story follows Sam, a sixth grader who decides to sue his school board over the constitutionality of homework, turning a common childhood frustration into a sophisticated lesson on civic engagement and legal systems. While the premise is humorous, the emotional core focuses on Sam's growing confidence and his realization that change requires teamwork and persistence. It is perfectly suited for children aged 8 to 12, offering a blend of realistic school-life drama and an aspirational look at the American justice system. Parents will appreciate how it balances a rebellious spirit with a deep respect for logic, research, and civil discourse.
