Simon's latest scheme is to gain everlasting fame and glory by winning the school talent show. What stands in his way? A lot. There's the fact that he doesn't sing, dance, or play a musical instrument. There's Stacy and her distracting brown eyes. There's the evil Mike McApline and his cronies. And last, but certainly not least, is the aged Mrs. Annand, who insists on bombarding Simon and his friends with dangerously hard muffins while they rehearse their act. Utter humiliation is looking a lot more likely than fame and glory for Simon's band, The Groovy Guys.This hilarious chapter book features illustrations, pages from Simon's secret notebook, and a glossary.

Pugnapped!: Commander Universe Saves the Day (Sort of)

A funny, fast-paced illustrated chapter book aimed at fans of Hank Zipzer, Stink, and I Funny. Fourth-grader Stevie Blunt is a huge comic book fan-and he's just found a rare copy of the first issue of&nbsp;Captain Fantastic, featuring a "Top Secret Superhero&nbsp;Training Journal." Now, all he has to do is dig up the money to pay for it.&nbsp; &nbsp; When a neighbor needs a last-minute dog sitter for her beloved pug, Stevie transforms into Commander Universe, ready to be the hero this citizen needs (and earn the money for his comic book). But then the dog goes missing, and Commander Universe has just hours to find out what happened. Follow the daring escapades of Commander Universe as they dodge mind-controlled squirrels, Mystery Neighbors, and new neighbor Abi in their attempt to save the precious pug. &nbsp;

A companion title to Almost Everybody Farts that's all about . . . you guessed it! Farts! 
Featuring a menagerie of animals and their signature farts (as well as some who don’t!), Marty's simple digital illustrations perfectly capture exaggerated poses and facial expressions for maximum silliness and minimal gross-out factor, keeping this taboo subject family friendly. The rhyming text makes for a perfect read-aloud experience.
