How to Rob a Bank

How to Rob a Bank

by Mitchell, Tom

ISBN: 9780008276508

A boy decides to rob a bank after he accidentally burns down the house of his 'crush' with a scented candle. Some people rob banks because they're greedy. Others enjoy the adrenaline rush. Me? I robbed a bank because of guilt. Specifically: guilt and a Nepalese scented candle. When fifteen-year-old Dylan burns down the house of the girl he's trying to impress, he thinks only a big gesture can make it up to her - a gesture like robbing a bank. An unwanted Saturday job, a prying older sister and his unfinished history homework are all that lie between Dylan and the heist of the century. Really, what's the worst that could happen?
