Arnold had always been an own pace type of guy. Put him in a room filled with screaming children, and he would have no trouble just taking out a book and starting to read. No matter what happened, he would approach life with a calm mind, and lazy body. Of course if you asked him, he wasn't lazy, he just strove to do the most amount of work with the least amount of effort. Even at school, he just sat in class.
However, after he is hurled into a harsh new world, he must adapt and try to find a way to live the life he wants. That being a slow and lazy life where he can do whatever he wants.
(P.S. If anyone can find a good cover image that I could use for this book I would greatly appreciate it.)
