INTERMEDIATE FICTION
Trueit, Trudi

No Girls Allowed (Dogs Okay)

(3) 4-6 Secrets of a Lab Rat series. Illustrated by Jim Paillot. Fourth grader Scab McNally invents an "Isabelle's Smell Sister-Be-Gone Spray" (named for his genius twin sister), which he sells to his friends. This leads to trouble, but an apology helps straighten out Scab's problems. Scab's first-person voice, combined with exaggerated cartoon illustrations, creates an entertaining tale of sibling rivalry that will resonate with put-upon brothers and fans of gross-out humor.
