Amazon.com description: Product Description: Finn Reeder thought it was just a dumb assignment when a sub told his English class that they had to start keeping a journal. Little did he know that his journal would turn into the record of a major flu pandemic. Somehow, he survives infection―maybe because his crazy dad has prepared for the apocalypse and follows him around with antibacterial spray; maybe because he’s lucky; maybe because the mask his dad made him wear is so dorky that no one will come near him. As his class size dwindles and the number of substitute teachers adds up, Finn takes notes on what’s going on in his school. He and his friend Amy face down the school bully, draw comics, catch the principal ordering pizza, and even manage to study when one sub’s gas mask makes it too hard to understand the day’s lecture. And when finally, Finn is the lone student remaining in school, he manages to win―and lose―the most intense game of solo dodge ball ever. By the time the month is over, he’s made it through the epidemic, solved the mystery of the gas mask sub, and might even have gotten himself a new girlfriend if he plays his cards right.
