It starts with an ordinary day, as Ethan sits down on the school bus and an oddly dressed person named Julian sits next to him. After an invitation to tea, the ball starts rolling — all the way to a hand-picked Academic Bowl team consisting of the aforementioned pair, the flame-haired Nadia and beleaguered grandson Noah. Two-time Newbery Medallist E. L. Konigsburg offers children her characteristic blend of imagination and humour in the remarkable story of an unlikely team that beats the odds in The View from Saturday. | The View from Saturday by E.
