"Otto runs for school President and wins because he was the only candidate that listened to his friends at his school. This is a great book to show that to be a good friend you need to listen, not talk all the time. It also was a good discussion for November elections."

— Melissaschott (4 out of 5 stars)

Quotes

  • “[Wells] demonstrates how a school election can lead to worthwhile change and be fun at the same time.”
