Bookroo's summary

Jake Drake is determined to win Despres Elementary's science fair and the coveted computer prize. To outshine his rivals, Marsha and Kevin, he must become a know-it-all himself. But as Jake dives deeper into the competition, he faces the risk of losing more than just the contest. Can he balance ambition with integrity, or will the pursuit of victory cost him dearly? Discover the twists and turns as Jake navigates the challenges of rivalry and self-discovery.

From the publisher

MEET JAKE DRAKE, KNOW-IT-ALL Jake Drake is excited about Despres Elementary School’s first science fair. He wants to win the grand prize: a brand-new Hyper-Cross-Functional Bluntium Twelve computer system. And he really wants to beat the third-grade know-it-alls, Marsha McCall and Kevin Young. The trouble is, to beat the know-it-alls, Jake has to become a know-it-all himself. And he may just lose more than he wins.
