A classroom mystery with an AI twist

At Brightling Middle School, prank-loving Oliver Zahn sees new homeroom teacher Mr. Aidact as an obstacle to his usual antics. But the teacher’s remarkable memory, unexpected expertise, and uncomplaining willingness to take on extra duties soon make him a favorite at school. Oliver and his friend Nathan suspect there is more to Mr. Aidact than meets the eye, setting their investigation against the everyday world of classes, sports, and school pranks. Gordon Korman builds the story around a comic clash between a rule-wrecker and a teacher whose unusual abilities point toward a secret experimental program. The mystery gives the school comedy a science-fiction premise while keeping the students’ curiosity at its center.

Book overview

From Gordon Korman, the bestselling author of Restart and The Unteachables, comes a hilarious new story about a mysterious new teacher who turns out to be an AI robot from a secret experimental program.

Oliver Zahn, spitball champion and self-declared rule-wrecker of Brightling Middle School, is not a fan of his new homeroom teacher, Mr. Aidact. The guy is sort of stiff, never cracks a smile, and refers to them as "pupils." The worst part is he catches Oliver before he can pull any of his signature pranks! It's time for Oliver and his best friend, Nathan, to show the new teacher who's boss.

But as the weeks go by, they start to realize that Mr. Aidact is not what they expected. He has an uncanny ability to remember song lyrics or trivia. When the girls' field hockey team needs a new coach, he suddenly turns out to be an expert. He never complains when other teachers unload work on him--even when it's lunchroom duty and overseeing detention. Against all odds, Mr. Aidact starts to become the most popular teacher at Brightling.

Still, Oliver and Nathan know that something is fishy. They're determined to get to the bottom of the mystery: What's the deal with Mr. Aidact?
