Jordan and Max, Showtime

Jordan and Max, Showtime — page 7 — At his old school Jordan had tried his hardest to be invisible True it hadn’t always worked but as far as Jordan could tell it was the only way to make it through the day without some kind of trouble Would there be less trouble at his new school He wasn’t sure But there was no time to dwell on it Just then the school’s intercom sounded a long low tone It was time for class 6
