Part of the George Brown, Class Clown series
A boy's money-making schemes are foiled by untimely magic burps.
Ten-year-old George Brown is determined to earn money for a coveted toy. But every attempt, from lemonade stands to backyard circuses, is hilariously sabotaged by his uncontrollable magic burps. Can George find a way to succeed despite the chaos? Discover the misadventures and unexpected twists as George navigates his entrepreneurial dreams with a magical twist.
In his continuing, but mainly disastrous, efforts to be an upstanding, responsible ten-year-old, George Brown decides it’s time to earn some money. (There’s also an expensive remote-controlled toy that he’s been coveting.) But no matter what he tries–whether it’s working at his mother’s craft shop, opening a lemonade stand, or setting up a backyard circus for neighborhood kids–the magic burps erupt at exactly the wrong times and wreak havoc on George’s entrepreneurial plans.
