This is Susie Morgenstern's first published young adult book in the U.S. In it, William get suspended for telling his teacher the truth about what he was thinking at the particular moment he was thinking it. During his three days off, he just lets life take him to unpredictable places. That's where he meets a few different folks who basically all tell him not to waste his life--to study, to think, to get educated.
