Illustrated by
Doug Holgate.
In his second book, good-natured and dorky (he crochets his own shoelaces and bites cheese into different shapes) fourth grader Oggie winds up at odds with the mean girls. Best friend Amy helps Oggie outsmart snooty Donnica Perfecto, although, ever clueless, Oggie doesn't realize he's been ostracized. This light, entertaining story is illustrated with funny gray-scale cartoon drawings.
