Description
It was the first day of school and Bubba Begonia felt great. Then - SPLAT! Bubba meets his new classmate Stinky Biggs. He also meets a stalking crow, a pair of puppets who speak Wabatawbee, a skunk named Chiclet, a Flying Bag of Doom, and a dog with gas. He accidentally robs a bank, he’s called a ‘hero’ and is given a reward. He has the worst birthday party ever, sees his favourite teacher dripping with egg, buys a wedding cake that tastes like ‘looove’, saves a bully’s butt and nearly ends up in the slammer. This can’t be good, can it?
