The Janitor's Boy by Andrew Clements

The Janitor's Boy is Jack. The book is about Jack. Jack's dad is the janitor at his school but Jack doesn't like that and leaves gum under the desks. He gets caught and then gets detention. I love how Jack has a great sense of smell. And when Jack met Eddie in the tunnel, I thought it was cool that Eddie was living there. Eddie is a kid that ran away from his dad. His dad was in a war and now was acting weird. Eddie didn't want to live with his dad until his dad got better.
