Last Bench Chronicles- Chronicles

School isn't just about passing exams. It's about surviving them.Welcome to Saint Gabriel's Academy (S.G.A.), a place where the sun is aggressive, the uniforms are two sizes too big, and the teachers are the "hunters" while the students are the "gazelles". For Leke, a self-proclaimed "Last Bencher," surviving the first term requires a specific set of skills known as Stealth Mode.Leke's "Three Pillars of Stealth" are simple: The Super-Ironed Uniform: If your shirt lines are sharp enough to cut paper, teachers assume your brain is just as sharp. The Middle Seat: The perfect invisibility cloak between the nerds in the front and the troublemakers in the back. The Serious Face: Always carry a thick textbook-even to the toilet-so no one asks you to sweep the yard.But Leke's life of invisibility is under siege. His father has issued "The Speech": if Leke gets one red mark on his report card, he's headed to his uncle's cocoa farm-a place with no Wi-Fi and even less mercy.To stay in school, Leke must navigate "Sudden Inspections" by the biscuit-snatching Senior Bakare and form a high-stakes alliance with Tunde-a robotic genius nicknamed "The Cyborg". Together, they build the "Milo-Mafia," using chocolate malt powder as a secret currency to trade for homework help, bribe authority figures, and power their underground "Milo-Tin Generator".From hiding contraband in a mango tree to distracting teachers with "rare bird" sightings, Leke's first term is a hilarious, high-stakes battle of wits.Will Leke's "Stealth Mode" be enough to survive the term, or is he destined for a life on the cocoa farm?Perfect for fans of Diary of a Wimpy Kid and The Terrible Two, Last Bench Chronicles is the ultimate survival guide for any "gazelle" trying to stay one step ahead of the "hunters."
