4-6Secrets of a Lab Rat series.
Illustrated by
Jim Paillot.
Scab McNally decides to challenge teacher's pet Missy Malone in class elections. He earns votes by performing one of his trademark stunts: eating unusual foods as the Human Vacuum. While there is an abundance of gross-out jokes, there's also substance and realistic school drama. Frequent text boxes add humor by including additional perspectives and ideas.
