The Bad Seed conspires to postpone Halloween when he can’t find the perfect costume in time for the big night. If he can’t enjoy his favorite holiday, NOBODY can! The Big Cheese is back with a hilarious new Christmas story! Will it be over-the-top or just a little cheesy? The Big Cheese is an irresistible hunk of cheddar who realizes there’s more to life than winning. This is a book about a bad seed. A baaaaaaaaaad seed. How bad? Do you really want to know? The Good Egg is a verrrrrrry good egg, indeed! Until one day he begins to crack (quite literally) from the pressure of always having to be Grade A perfect. The Sour Grape holds grudges for everything! But could a bunch of forgiveness be enough to turn this sour grape sweet?
