The Fourth Stall
Description
The humor of Diary of a Wimpy Kid meets a Godfather-like tale of crime and betrayal in this first book in Chris Rylander's The Fourth Stall Saga.
Do you need something? Mac can get it for you. He and his best friend and business manager, Vince. Their methods might sometimes run afoul of the law, or at least the school code of conduct, but if you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can pay him, Mac is on your side. His office is located in the East Wing boy's bathroom, fourth stall from the high window. And business is booming. Or at least it was, until this particular Monday. Because this Monday is when Mac and Vince find out that the trouble with solving everyone else's problems is there's no one left to solve yours.
The school setting; fast-paced, cinematic, and funny story; and engaging voice make The Fourth Stall a perfect classroom read.

Reviews
Draws in even the most apprehensive young reader... A robust story rich in action, adventure, humor, and friendship.--Voice of Youth Advocates (VOYA)
Here is an original-a story that really gets how guys are pals. It's also funny, mysterious, and true to the heart of what really matters when you are in middle school. Do yourself a favor. Read it. Now.--Jon Scieszka, author of the Time Warp Trio series
Mac narrates the tale with the arch flatness of a 1940s satire of the noir detective genre...Excellent.--ALA Booklist
