Attack of the Mutant Underwear

New kid. New school. A whole new opportunity.Meet Cody Lee Carson. Birthday: April 1. Past history: doofus, bozo-brain. Now that Cody's in a new school in a new town, he has a chance to reinvent himself. Through his "New Me" journal, readers follow him through his fifth-grade year--including everything from student council elections, science fairs, crushes, and one disastrous "talent" show. Will he make it through in one piece--without showing his Tweety-Bird underwear again?"This lively and believable record . . . has great appeal. It's a sort of male companion for Phyllis Reynolds Naylor's early 'Alice' books."--School Library Journal
