Synopsis

From the author of Frindle, Ben and his friends have just three days left to save their school or it will be bulldozed before their very eyes. The conclusion to Andrew Clements’s dynamic Keepers of the School series!

The Keepers of the School—known to their friends as Ben, Jill, and Robert—have one last chance to save their school before it’s torn down to make room for a seaside amusement park. But their nemeses, Janitors Lyman and Wally, are just as determined to keep the kids out of the way and the demolition on schedule.

One way or the other, this battle is about to come to a head. When all is said and done, will the school still be standing? Or will everything the Keepers have fought for be destroyed?

Goodreads review by Sarah on March 14, 2022

This book is an amazing finale to an amazing series. I loved the plan the children (okay, Robert) came up with. The last 30% of the book have a lot of suspense, which ends with, well, a surprising ending. I also loved how Ben grew as a person and really figured out what his role in the group was. Th......more

I love this series. It's so cleverly written and each clue is so carefully plotted out. I also love the characters. They are realistic as kids with flaws and quirks and still very likeable.

Goodreads review by Josiah on May 04, 2017

Andrew Clements is a reliably good storyteller, but the Benjamin Pratt & the Keepers of the School series broke new ground for him after decades of success in publishing. Featuring a protracted storyline that couldn't possibly fit in one of his typical junior novels, the author presents Ben, Jill, R......more

Goodreads review by Jessalyn on June 21, 2015

This series was cute. I listened to them all at once, though, so it's hard to tell which parts I liked were from which volume. They're short enough that they could have been all one book anyway.
