In her fourth book, cockroach Maybelle falls asleep in Mrs. Peabody's ten-layer cake and winds up at the school bake sale. While trying to find her way home, Maybelle must rescue her pal Henry, a flea, from a start-up flea circus. Chock-full of humorous situations, young readers will delight in the friendly roach's antics--and think twice about biting into their school lunches.
