“The extraordinary education of Nicholas Benedict” by Trenton Lee Stewart & Diana Sudyka
“Nine-year-old Nicholas Benedict has more problems than most children of his age. Not only is he an orphan with an unfortunate nose, but he also has narcolepsy, a condition that gives him terrible nightmares and makes him fall asleep at the worst possible moments. Now he's being sent to a new orphanage, where he will encounter vicious bullies, selfish adults, strange circumstances — and a mystery that could change his life forever.
