It follows an average, quick-witted but habitually unprepared boy, Sven, as he navigates strict classrooms, fragile pride, and the tug-of-war between talent and effort. Key figures include the sarcastic teacher Svenningsen, the fair and steady headmaster Holst, the principled classmate Anton Bech, and the competitive Simon Selmer. The story focuses on school life, friendship, and the moral fallout when small evasions grow into real trouble.

The opening of the novel introduces Sven’s middling standing and his knack for guessing, excuses, and daydreaming, which earn him both a teasing nickname and teachers’ distrust. When Svenningsen finds and publicly reads Sven’s Columbus poem, refuses to return it, and strikes him for protesting, Anton Bech calmly defends Sven; later, headmaster Holst handles the matter with tact, returns the poem, and quietly wins Sven’s admiration, while a tentative friendship forms between Sven and Anton. The narrative then shifts to Sven’s worsening math troubles: a detention, ominous notes, and a letter from Holst advising private tutoring that Sven panics over, secretly opens and burns, then covers with lies about getting help and by buying a new gradebook. To keep the pretense, he copies Anton’s Saturday homework from the unlocked cabinet; after an ink mishap, he rewrites solutions from Simon Selmer’s work and unknowingly reproduces a telltale error, leading Lange to accuse Anton of cheating and lying, while Sven sits silent, gripped by fear as his deception begins to ensnare others.
