About this book

Tony Baloney and his best friend,
Bob, can't wait for tonight.
It's Books and Buddies,
the best school event ever!
But will a fight with Big Sister
ruin everything?

With spot-on comic timing and hilariously familiar situations, award-winners Pam Munoz Ryan and Edwin Fotheringham once again examine sibling dynamics with insight and heart.

Whether you are a Bossy Biggest, a Mellow (and mischievous) Middle, or a Bothersome Baby, you are sure to find yourself or someone you love in the Baloney family.

"Memorable characters and vivid scenes. Tony will definitely be a favorite with readers. He is bound to become an enduring character poised to experience many more adventures." -- LIBRARY MEDIA CONNECTION

"The trials and tribulations of middle children get zesty, energetic treatment in this story." -- THE HORN BOOK

"Totally goofy, but totally fun." -- BOOKLIST
