Death By Eggplant

Death by Eggplant(by Susan Heyboer O'Keefe) is probably a new book to most readers, but nevertheless, it is an AWESOME one.
Bertie gets the old eighth-grade responsibility test: flour sack baby. How much weirder do these projects get?
Bertie has to survive ten days with this irreplaceable and soon to be cherished flour sack, without it getting harmed in any way. But from that point of view, his baby being harmed is not a problem, because it's simply not an option with a teacher like Bertie's.
Bertie just wants to cook, but the whole world is stopping him. Absolutely no one supports him or his one passion. Grades are tumbling, parents are grumbling, and it's the least Bertie can do to be nice to his parents and get a bully out of the way... not to mention Baby Cleo!
Sympathize with Bertie as you read a clip of his school year in Death by Eggplant!


Lookout for the forthcoming review on FEVER 1793!
