Now that I think about it, they kind of do have the same premise! But the SCHOOLED that I read at age 11 is so, so different from the OLD SCHOOL I read at age 17. It’s… wow! The story with Cap who lived on a farm with his grandma who wouldn’t sell anything? Who, like Gord said, was a massive hippie living in the 70s? And OLD SCHOOL, with Dex living at a senior citizen’s home, being everybody’s local grandson, handyman, extraordinaire? They’re so different. They were so, so good too. I’d never expected to like a story about, forgive me, “old people”, but it was most excellent! Most excellent! I won’t spoil it but you’ll be hard pressed to feel tired while reading it.
