Description
Is it possible to beat the allegedly unbeatable Catholic school team at football? How do you avoid taking the pills that Monkey and Fatso supply? And what is an ex-notary doing living in a bum’s hut? Can a classmate who has moved to Latvia all the way from America become closer than a ‘homie’? These questions require definite answers, and they can be found in this book.
Can world-famous masterpieces – Otto Dix, George Grosz, even a couple of Rembrandts from the Prague museum – be found in a landfill, next to gold, British pounds, and American dollars?
Is it possible to beat the allegedly unbeatable Catholic school team at football? How do you avoid taking the pills that Monkey and Fatso supply? And what is an ex-notary doing living in a bum’s hut? Can a classmate who has moved to Latvia all the way from America become closer than a ‘homie’? These questions require definite answers, and they can be found in this book.
Daumants is the most ordinary and also the most special boy, whose parents died in a car crash. For the last four years, he has been tossed around like a football, from one relative to the next. The boy finds himself in a specialist school, then in an ordinary school, where he at last finds the understanding of his classmates and even gets a taste of a first love. The ridiculed Daumants becomes the school hero – in the football game against the unbeatable Catholic school team, it is he who scores both winning goals.
This story, induced by ample amounts of humour by the author, talks about ordinary everyday things, sometimes even sad things. The reader may want to know – why is Daumats always surrounded by these seemingly powerful Goliaths or Kids, who are always too generous with their ‘special lexicon pearls’. Just when it seems that Daumants won’t be able to take it anymore, he realises that he is no longer alone – little Ilze is now by his side.
By reading this book, parents and children are both given the fantastic opportunity to smile at themselves. Maybe even to have a laugh at themselves. A good old laugh.
