Fourth-grader
Mike Weiss can’t get the
hang of math, forgets
his homework, and has
trouble sitting still in
school. And as if
getting sent to the
principal’s office the
first week of school
wasn’t bad enough,
classmate Jackson
(“Mike’s enemy since
birth”) won’t lay off
him, and he’s spending
his after-school hours
with Nora, the gifted
new girl next door. One
afternoon with Nora,
Mike discovers the town
magic shop, The White
Rabbit, and something
that he might actually
be good at. The
confidence boost helps
Mike work harder in
school (Sunshine State Young
