Along the way, he perfects his grunting; makes a new best friend; and begins to unravel a secret plot that could put the whole school in danger! Will Harvey measure up to save the day?
This seriously silly story has enough bogeys, burps, and bad smells to entertain any 9-11 year old; but underneath the stinky swamp goblins and swamp-paste sandwiches, there’s a strong message about not carrying the blame for things that aren’t your fault.
