Fans of Jeff Kinney's Wimpy Kid titles will be drawn to Oggie." --School Library JournalOggie Cooder has a talent--he can charve better than anyone else in Truman Elementary School.

More Description From the author of So B. It--now a major motion picture. "A loveable character . . . Fans of Jeff Kinney's Wimpy Kid titles will be drawn to Oggie." --School Library JournalOggie Cooder has a talent--he can charve better than anyone else in Truman Elementary School. (Charving, for the uninitiated, is the carving of a piece of cheese with one's teeth.) Oggie doesn't think this is anything special--but his whole school will soon be disagreeing with him. Because after he inadvertently charves during a nationwide hunt for unusual talents, his charving puts him on the path to fame and fortune. Suddenly, he's the star of the school . . . but he's not sure that he wants to shine that way. This is Sarah Weeks at her best--funny, clever, and kid-friendly."Oggie's adventure delivers a message about staying true to oneself, but the lesson is never cheesy; it is as light-hearted and tasty as Oggie's charving lessons." --Kidsreads.com"What is refreshing is that Oggie doesn't have to change his nature to change his social status. Gentle humor with a satisfying message for middle-grade readers." --Kirkus Reviews
