George Brown, Class Clown #1
George Brennan has always been class clown, popular and funny. When his military family moves yet again, he decides to turn over a new leaf. He even chooses a new name - George Brown. It is never easy being the new kid, but for George it is a nightmare. To celebrate the not-so-good first day of school, his family goes to Ernie's Ice Cream Imporium. George has a rootbeer float with chocolate ice cream which causes a massive, magical, recurring burp. Did wishing on the shooting star cause George's trouble? The burps cause George to behave outrageously. Can George squelch the belch? Author Nancy Krulik also wrote the Katie Kazoo Switcheroo series, and Katie is mentioned as one of George's friends from the old school. In fact, he gave her her neat nickname. Aaron Blecha's illustrations coupled with Ms. Krulik's stories make this series a welcome addition to elementary collections.
