Former Farmington Hills Student and Author Returns to School to Share Painful Lesson

Todd Hasak-Lowry, author of "33 Minutes" presented his debut novel to students at Warner Middle School this week.

In middle school, author Todd Hasak-Lowry learned the hard way that not all friendships last forever. It’s a lesson he took and turned into his debut children’s novel, “33 Minutes,” which he presented to his former Farmington Hills middle school.

The Observer & Eccentric reports how Hasak-Lowry returned to Warner Upper Elementary School earlier this week to talk about his new book that he hopes will “teach a lesson.”

According to his website, “33 Minutes” tells the story of Sam Lewis, a seventh grader, who is anticipating getting “his butt kicked in exactly thirty-three minutes. He knows this because yesterday his ex-best friend Morgan Sturtz told him.”
