AdamIn the Unteachables, it states that if they ordered for every child and student in the building excluding the Unteachables class, they would have 1000 vovoselas. There are 8 people in SCS8, including Mr. Kermit. When they do eventually steal the shipment, there are 1008 vovoselas in total. So, was it done for convenience by the principal, or did she change her mind? Was this intentional? By the way, what was your favorite book to write? Best regards and merry Christmas,
