Publisher Description
Laugh out loud, hilarious middle grade series comparable to Franny K Stein and Judy Moody, featuring school-based storylines!
FORMAT: 2 CDs, Unabridged
NARRATOR: Oliver Wyman
Fourth-grader Scab McNally knows exactly what he wants: a dog. Part inventor, part daredevil, and part mischievous student, Scab is determined not to let anything or anyone get in his way, especially his "smart times ten" twin sister, Isabelle. With her reporting his every move to their parents, Scab can't catch a break. How is he supposed to prove to his parents that he's responsible enough to handle a pet if she keeps tattling on every tiny thing he does? When his newest invention, a sister repellent spray (a.k.a. Isabelle's Smell) becomes a hit with the guys, Scab hatches a plan.

“Narrator Oliver Wyman characterizes Scab with the rascally voice of the school cutup and gives Izzy a bit of dignity as she suffers a crisis of friendship. Wyman imbues his fifth-graders with Valley Girl accents and his fourth-grade bully with a petulant snarl, all of it done in an energetic tone that invites laughter. For fans of hard-core adolescent humor, this is as sweet as bug spit.”

Quotes
-
“This story is guaranteed to entertain. This is a perfect book for reluctant readers, especially those who always seem to find themselves in trouble.”
— Children’s Literature -
“Scab is a likable, free-thinking boy who is full of charm and humor. He leaps before he thinks and that gets him into more trouble than he can handle. His many tips, diagrams, and facts scattered throughout are entertaining…This is the first book in a series, and kids are sure to be wondering what kind of trouble Scab will brew in his lab next.”
— School Library Journal -
“The first in a new series, Secrets of a Lab Rat, this will grab elementary-school boys with the uproarious, yucky details and irreverent view of authority, as well as the mushy reconciliation, when his sister helps Scab get his dog.”
— Booklist
