Bubba Begonia's back! This time he and his two pals, Harold Haymow and Rad Chad Disco, learn the hard way that if you're going to mess with the colourful and unpredictable Moonbaby Orbit, then you'd better be prepared to pay the price.After playing a wildly successful practical joke on Moonbaby and her sidekick, Margo Marvelous, the boys find themselves out in the middle of nowhere, drenched in stinky perfume and watching helplessly as Moonbaby and Margo run off with their clothes. The boys' journey back to civilization is a zany adventure that ends when the boys, dressed in mud and rhubarb leaves, enlist the help of Hippo, The Black-Nosed Rottenweiler to invade Camp What-A-Girl to find their missing clothes.

Bubba Begonia, You’ll Be Sorry

Bubba Begonia is a young boy who desperately wants to make a good impression on the first day at his new school. But Bubba is nervous. Very nervous. And when he gets nervous his finger just seems to naturally head to his nose. "Bubba! Don't be messin' with your nose," admonishes his mother. "Your finger'll get stuck and then you'll be sorry!"But Deerwatson Elementary isn't your ordinary school. And Bubba's classmates aren't your ordinary students. In meeting the zaniest bunch of kids ever assembled, Bubba makes a memorable first impression when his mother's words of warning come true.In his first chapter book (ages 8 and up), Gerry O'Brien creates an hilarious story of a young boy who overcomes an embarrassing personal habit with the help of his equally embarrassing little sister.
