The Morons' Club

Sixteen year-old Jefferson is a loner who plays video games all the time. His mother finally persuades him to vacation with her at Iroquois Lake. During that time, he sneaks out to a musty outhouse to play his video games. A tornado comes and Jefferson is transported to the world of 1946 in Waldheim, Saskatchewan, where he meets the Morons' Club. These boys are non-athletic but find ways to have fun. Historically, this was an actual club. This story draws from memoirs of two deceased members and the memories of living ones. This club lasted until 1949, when members graduated from high school. This book documents the fun and humor of a group of boys in a post-war rural village.
