A MG story about a kid whose superpower is reading trash (think Sherlock Holmes) to deduce all sorts of everything about everyone? Yes please! Hugo, long the smallest & often one of the most bullied kids in class, finally makes a name for himself when reading people‘s trash turns out to be not only cool but also helpful…which of course also leads to trouble. Occasionally formulaic, this story has important lessons & laugh out loud moments.
