Hooky- To skip school. Leon skips for fear of school. Jay skips for Cynthia Brown. Adam skips for fun. At first all goes well, but then the boys are separated and each will have to overcome a series of unexpected and nerve-wracking complexities to try and pull off the challenge of playing hooky. By skipping school, peering into an adult magazine, or dodging the daunting principal, Mr. Desmond, the boys boldly step into the prohibited world of adulthood where adventure means taking risks, and where risks bear consequences. In the end the boys are reunited in a real hot spot, their fate in the hands of the least trusted of the three. Hooky is a comedy/adventure that pits three young boys against the world for several hours. Join Leon, Jay, and Adam in this convoluted tale of imagination, friendship, dreams and disappointment. This is one story you don't want to skip!
