The Hatford boys are miserable because
a family of girls has moved into the
Benson house across the river. Their
best friends, the Benson brothers, have
moved to Georgia for a year. The
Bensons will move back to Buckman, West
Virginia, if they can't keep their
house rented. So, the Hatfords decide
to make the girls so unhappy they'll
want to leave, allowing the Bensons to
move back. However, the Hatfords don't
know
that the Malloy girls are watching them
while they are pulling their first
practical joke. Those gutsy girls think
of a great way to get back at them!
This book is part of a SUPER series.
You'll be
laughing out loud at the antics of the
Hatfords and Malloys!
