“Yeah, I guess you’re right,” I said, glancing over to our Hall of Trophies and the one, the only, remaining Professor Brain-Drain card left in existence. “It doesn’t make any sense at all.”

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

WILLIAM BONIFACE
may or may not exist. Ordinary Boy, after all, tells his own story. Mr. Boniface could simply be a creation of the publisher in order to fulfill the requirement than an author be listed on the cover of this book. Given that possibility, there is no harm in revealing that Mr. Boniface has lent his name to over two dozen far less wordy children´s books that were also in need of an author. Unless, of course, he didn´t, which would make this entire biography irrelevant.
