Jennings As Usual

The Jennings series is a set of books that tells the story of a schoolboy, J.C.T. Jennings, while at preparatory school. Jennings loves to make things and is wildly creative, and his ideas always get him in trouble with school staff. Somehow Jennings manages to charm his way out of any real trouble. Jennings has a partner-in-crime, Darbishire, who goes along, somewhat reluctantly, with the wild schemes Jennings proposes.

I found this book in the series as an audiobook. Even though this series was begun in the early 1950s, it held up well. Very funny.
