From Mom: We both absolutely loved Jonny Jakes Investigates the Hamburgers of Doom by Malcolm Judge and illustrated by Alan Brown -- set for release on March 1st. We received our copy for free from NetGalley but that never influences our opinion.
Jonny Jakes is not the main character -- but it is the main alias of the main character, a loner student who writes a newspaper for his school that mainly focuses on uncovering scandals. He also uses the alias of Fiona Friend as the editor of the paper. MY John thought that it would be fun to do his review under his girl alias of Ann Dalso, which we came up with since he uses the phrase "and also" a lot. When a new principal is suddenly hired for the school, Jonny sets out to get the scoop on the newcomer and makes some unexpected friends in unexpected ways in the process. All in all it was a fun story that had us both roaring with laughter on several occassions and we can't wait for the next book in the series!
