About this book

The hilarious chapter book series about an accidental rule breaker from Katherine Applegate, Newbery Medal winning and bestselling author of The One and Only Ivan and Crenshaw, returns with a fresh new cover from artist Brian Biggs and bonus material!

It seems like everyone in Roscoe s class has Walkie-Talkies, the cool new shoes that let you talk to your friends, and his pal Gus wants a pair too. But Gus s parents won t buy them until his old, boring sneakers are worn out and that could take forever. Luckily, if there s one thing Roscoe is good at, it s destroying things. . . .

Roscoe and his comical misadventures will appeal to fans of Megan McDonald s Stink series; Nancy Krulik s George Brown, Class Clown series; and Dan Gutman s My Weirder School series. This repackaged edition now includes Roscoe Riley s Time-Out Activities, featuring lists, games, and more."
