"Plenty of humor. Those who enjoyed the first will likely love this volume."--Kirkus Reviews "A rare book that men and their sons can laugh about together."--Best Life "A deeply funny chronicle of male adolescence."--Entertainment WeeklySpud Milton is back and about to begin his second rowdy year at (reformatory) boarding school! Now he's nearly fifteen and has the most beautiful girlfriend in town. Life couldn't be better. Except for one tiny (make that very tiny) thing. He's still a spud! The madness continues when his dorm buddies, the legendary Crazy Eight, adopt an unusual new member (Roger the cat), and must contend with a fresh new batch of unruly, disobedient first years. Spud is soon plagued with women trouble, tricked into plenty of expulsion-worthy adventures, and horrified to find his dreams of Broadway fame in tatters after landing the part of the Dove of Peace in a disastrous production of Noah's Ark. Can Spud survive another year of mischief and mayhem? Or has this little choirboy sung his last song?
