Garrett is a skater boy at Trace Middle School who befriends Roy. He’s a poor student and is best known for his impressive fake fart noises. He’s also a huge gossip and has lots of insider information on his classmates, due to his mom being the guidance counselor at Trace Middle. Though Roy isn’t much of a skater, he appreciates Garrett’s attempts to be friendly—and appreciates it even more when Garrett procures Dana’s home address for Roy and later attends the lunchtime protest in support of the burrowing owls. However, Roy does find Garrett’s exaggerated suggestions to get plastic surgery or transfer to a private school (to escape Dana and Beatrice, respectively) a bit annoying.

Quotes
He wasn’t in the mood to turn somersaults, though he couldn’t deny experiencing a sense of liberation. He was tired of being Dana Matherson’s punching bag.
And while he felt guilty about making up the bogus cigarette story, Roy also couldn’t help but think that putting Dana behind bars was a public service. He was a nasty kid. Maybe a hitch at juvenile hall would straighten him out.
