George Booth.
Nonstop puns and other wordplay (sometimes funny) reinforced by comical pen-and-ink drawings depict a week in the life of young Ron Faster. His schoolmates include Viola Fuss and Izzy Normal, all supervised by school personnel such as Ms. Celia Seeyalater and Mr. Hugh da Mann. Ron's adventures play second fiddle to a tangle of hit-or-miss witticisms.
