This is a humorous book about a 7th grader named Griff Carver who takes his job as hall monitor way too seriously. On his first day at his new school, he busts the principal for throwing a gum wrapper on the hallway floor. Griff’s penchant for going above and beyond the line of duty, without regard for the consequences, gets him thrown off the patrol. However, his innate sense of bringing justice to light compels him to work undercover to solve the mystery of the fake hall passes. Krieg, writer for such places as Cartoon Network, Nickelodeon and the Disney Channel, does a fine job at describing scenes and fully developing the characters. I could easily see this one being made into a movie. This is a great read I recommend to tweens and teens alike. Griff Carver is starting at a new school, after being expelled from his last. He is known for being a hallway patrol officer at his old school and he plans to join the patrol at his new school. He doesn't like his partner, but figures he'll make the most of it. Things start to go a little wrong while he's on patrol and he is kicked off the squad, but this doesn't stop his desire for justice. When he figures out about some underground problems going on, he's determined to catch the culprits.Written in alternating narrators, and using different formats, this book does a nice job of encompassing the life in a middle school.
