Tired of being bullied, but too afraid to stand up for himself, Jeffrey secretly takes his revenge out on the class bully by writing an episodic novel (kind of James Bond-ish stories) where the bully is a threat to all mankind and only Jeffrey himself can stop him (and rescue the girl). I especially appreciated the way Jeffrey's parents and true (but younger) friends are portrayed in this story. (
