nHits the elementary-school-boy sweet spot.... Hilarious. -- Booklist nNo school for two whole weeks Now Tom has plenty of time for the good stuff, like finding new ways (so many ) to annoy his big sister, Delia. Or band practice for Dogzombies in his best friend Derek's garage. All that stands between this band and rock greatness is, well, a song (besides Delia's a Weirdo). And finding a drummer. And landing a gig. Will Tom let a killer toothache and pesky overdue homework get in his way?n
