school year and Oliver is looking forward to a seventh-grade year full of spitballs, jokes and pranks with his friend Nathan. And their new homeroom teacher, Mr. Aidact, looks like a prime target.

He also has a seemingly superhuman ability to detect and defuse almost every one of Oliver’s schemes.But that’s not all of it. Mr. Aidact seems to be teaching pretty much every subject. He’s willing to take over jobs no other teacher will, like supervising detention and coaching the field hockey team. Oliver and Nathan are determined to find out what is up with this guy.What they uncover is out of this world!Mr. Aidact is, in fact, superhuman — he’s an android, a secret project of the Department of Education. And when the secret leaks out, the school and the PTA are in an uproar, and calls for his “deactivation” are loud and clear.Can Oliver and his friends turn this plan around and save the teacher they’ve grown to love and appreciate?Blast Off!

ÉPOCA MÁS MÁGICA DEL AÑO. Para sacar a Lovelight Farms de la ruina, Stella Bloom tendrá que aliarse con su mejor amigo, Luke Peters, y fingir que tienen una relación para ganar un premio que salve su negocio. Hay muchos motivos por los que Lovelight Farms ya no es el paraíso invernal con el que Stella Bloom soñaba: los abetos marchitos, el establo de Papá Noel conquistado por mapaches, mercancías extraviadas, una deuda tremenda... Para intentar salvarlo, Stella se presenta a un concurso. Pero hay un problema: intentando pintar Lovelight como un destino para vacaciones en pareja, Stella dijo que lo llevaba con su novio. Y no tiene. A quien sí tiene es a Luke Peters, su mejor amigo, que de repente se ve con un negocio a su nombre y, de paso, con una relación falsa. No obstante, fingir que está enamorado de Stella le resulta fácil, y puede que el destino le haya hecho el mejor regalo de Navidad posible...
