The twins’ 5th grade class is in an uproar over Ralph Henry Dalton’s constant bragging. Jerrianna’s plan to stop it is outrageous, but – it could work . . . maybe . . . It all depends on Malley. Or does it?
How do you deal with a 10 year-old who’s a bit of a bully and a Great Big Bragger?
The Kingsley twins’ fifth grade class has a major dilemma: Ralph Henry Dalton, the Biggest Bragger in the Galaxy who’s wreaking havoc on their class. With a substitute teacher in the mix, Ralph’s antics reach new heights, pushing even the shyest student, Lyn Marie, the size of a pea, to the brink of desperation.
What will bring an end to all this bragging torture?
Jerrianna Kingsley, the creative optimist, believes she has the perfect solution. Stage an epic air hockey showdown on Saturday! If he’s as great as he thinks he is, Ralph Henry will have to fact The Mystery Guest Player—their new pet, a Maine Coon cat named Snowshoe Mal. Only if he can defeat the MGP will Ralph Henry be crowned truly great.
Twin Jeoffrey, ever the pessimist, thinks his sister’s plan is doomed before it even begins. Malley only plays when she feels like it.
Not aware of the plot against him, Ralph Henry feels confident of winning all. After all, HE IS THE BEST!
Their classmates don’t come close with their guesses of who the Mystery Guest Play is, and the twins aren’t telling. After all, it’s not a mystery if you know!
Will Ralph Henry’s bravado be silenced once and for all? Or will he prevail and be worse than ever?
