I will post a summary for each third of the book. Warning: The second and third parts may contain spoilers, but I will not highlight them like Catching Fire...
Holling knows Ms. Baker hates his guts. There's no other reason for how she gives him the hardest problems, or makes him read...Shakespere! During Wenesday, while everyone but him is at church, Holling must do pointless chores for her: cleaning chalk-boards, pounding erasers, and many others. Then they move on to one of the most famous authors: Shakespere. It's a good thing that there is a storm, attempted murders, witches, wizards, invisible spirits, revolutions, characters drinking until they're dead drunk, and an angry monster named Caliban! Sadly, the cream puff incident occurs. When some of his classmates overhear Ms. Baker bribe Holling with another cream puff, Meryl Lee, Mai Thi, and Danny Hupfer threaten him to bring them in 3 weeks. So when Holling goes to Mr. Goldman's bakery and finds out he's $2.80 short the baker declares he needs a boy who's read Shakespere, he siezes the oppurtunity and gets the puffs. But with 2 rats on the loose, cream puffs don't last long. Once that's over with, Holling has to worry about the Shakespere show. After the show is the chance to see Mickey Mantle-a pro baseball player. Although dreams are crushed when Holling can't open the dressing room door. So he runs in yellow tights with feathers on the seat of them. After all this, he is found to be rejected by a baseball star. Is all hope lost? Or will some Yankees save the day?
