Publisher's summary

Thirteen-year-old Theodore Boone knows every judge, police officer, and court clerk in Strattenburg. He has even helped bring a fugitive to justice. But even a future star lawyer like Theo has to deal with statewide standardized testing. When an anonymous tip leads the school board to investigate a suspicious increase in scores at another local middle school, Theo finds himself thrust in the middle of a cheating scandal. With insider knowledge and his future on the line, Theo must follow his keen instincts to do what’s right in the newest case for clever kid lawyer Theo Boone.

Great Series!

Love this series…clean content, and Richard Thomas’ reading is superb. Not sure it would be quite the same if read by anyone else.

Cheating never pays.

Another installment of the kid lawyer, Theodore Boone. Grisham points out problems with standardized testing to determine future of students as well as teachers. It is sad teachers can no longer practice the art of teaching and instead have to teach for the tests.

Almost a judge!

In this story the happenings are almost too much like a Hallmark movie, but still enjoyable, an easy listening story in an unHallmark world. The story part in animal court are always a Hoot!
