Another hilarious tale in the very cook 'Hotshots' chapter book series.
Ranger is your typical sort of kid - he gets teased by the older boys on the school bus. One day, after accidentally stepping on dog poo, he gets banished. "Get off, Stinky!" the boys yell. Ranger then steps off the bus and a magpie smacks into the back of his head.
There's only one hint of hope for Ranger: the upcoming Family Classic - the local boating race and his only chance of revenge. But will bad luck continue to follow Ranger? Will he even make it to the end of the race alive?
