D - The Boy Who Called Wolf

A little known part of this story is that the boy's name was Noah. Oh, yes. It's true. You can find that information in chapter two where the boy started first grade and, despite his having many friends and being very successful in his academic pursuits, he thought that a full day of school was entirely too long and repeatedly throughout the school year came down with ailments that were undetectable by the school nurse with a thermometer or any other outward display of symptoms and was forced to call his mom to come pick him up on Tuesdays and Thursdays when mom should have been enjoying a blissful day of mother's day outing.

Hmmmmmmmmm. Maybe that part is lesser known since it was written in such a long run-on sentence. Clearly not up to the literary standards of the rest of the story.
