On the first day of school, as soon as the teachers find out that Nick is another Pearson boy, they go from nice to nasty. By lunchtime, one missing yellow notebook, a brand new baseball cap, animals running around the hallway, and a flooded boys bathroom forces Nick into the spotlight. After telling the truth to his best friend, Chris, Nick begins to wonder if he should come clean to the principal and the rest of the school to clear his name or remain the baddest kid in sixth grade.
