Answer 1

Holling Hoodhood starts 7th grade in 1967 on Long Island and quickly realizes that his teacher, Mrs. Baker, doesn't like him at all. Because he is the only Presbyterian in his class, he finds himself alone with her on Wednesday afternoons. At first, Mrs. Baker has him doing menial classroom tasks, but after a mishap, they move on to Shakespeare. Breaking thoroughly with the strong tradition of teens disliking the Bard, Holling enjoys the great stories, learns new curses, and becomes a fan. He even manages to turn his knowledge of Shakespeare into a way to get enough creampuffs for his class. Though it will mean appearing on stage in tights and feathers. Those were one of the many struggles he faced.
