I first read this in 7th grade and it has ever since been my favorite book of all times. One of the only novels I've read multiple times. Just as good in 2020s as it was in the 1990s (and the 1930s when it was written). The story of a mouse named Amos that lives in Ben Franklin's hat and is indirectly responsible for all of the good things in his life, and all the bad things where when he ignored Amos.
