SKATEBOARD PARTY

Richard can&;t wait to show off his flat-ground Ollies at a friend&;s birthday party at the skate park but a note home from his teacher threatens to ruin his plans. He really meant to finish his assignment on howler monkeys but he just got . . . distracted. If only he could focus on his schoolwork he wouldn&;t get into this kind of trouble! Can Richard manage to put off getting the note signed (and facing the consequences) until after the party or will the deception make things even worse?     Nikki and Deja fans and their male peers are sure to recognize themselves and their classmates in this humorous school story.
