The View from Saturday
| E.L. Konigsburg
| Meet the Souls - "Noah," who quite by accident was best man at the wedding of Ethan's grandmother and Nadia's grandfather
- "Nadia," a hybrid with a halo of red hair, a dog that's a genius, and a fondness for baby turtles
- "Ethan," the silent second son of one of Epiphany's oldest families, who discovers he likes halos
- "Julian," the strangest person on the school bus, who starts everything by inviting the others to a tea party
How did Mrs. Olinski, returning to teaching ten years after being paralyzed in an automobile accident, choose these four to be her sixth-grade Academic Bowl team? And how did this unlikely foursome become even unlikelier champions, in far more than just the state middle school competition? "The View From Saturday" is a rich and rewarding journey that answers these questions and raises many more.
