Part of the George Brown, Class Clown series
A super burp threatens George's chance to win a crucial bet.
George's basketball team, the Fighting Ferrets, is set for a big game against Louie's team. A bet is on the line: the loser becomes the winner's butler for a week. Confident in victory, George faces an unexpected challenge when his uncontrollable super burp leads to misbehavior, and his friend Alex, a strict school safety monitor, reports him. Now banned from playing, George must find a way to win the bet without stepping on the court. Can he outsmart the odds, or will he end up serving Louie for a week?
There are no time-outs when the super burp takes control! George knows that his basketball team, the Fighting Ferrets, is really good. So when Louie proposes a bet for their upcoming game, George accepts the challenge: the person on the losing team has to be the winner’s butler for a week! George is confident he’ll lead his team to victory. But then his best friend Alex, a school safety monitor who’s been on a rule-enforcing frenzy, reports George after the super burp makes him misbehave. That means George can’t play in the big game! After he’s lost the chance to play, will he also lose the bet?
