Premio Selezione BancarellinoMatt is a 12-year-old with a keen tendency for trouble. This time he made a really big mess… But how could he have known that rockets, if triggered and positioned near bushes, can set them on fire? Just how?
His parents decide to put him in detention and sentence him to a month of volunteering at an Elderly Centre. That is, a centre FULL of old people. Matt is desperate: he absolutely does not want to waste the best months of his youth amongst old folks. Besides, such an activity would undermine his already precarious reputation at school. One thing is certain: this time his plans will have to change. And drastically.
