Three Rotten Eggs

(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Elaine Clayton. The two clubs in Miss Earth's classroom, the Tattletales and the Copycats, compete in a school egg hunt for charity. Unbeknownst to the children, three of the eggs have been genetically mutated as part of a scientific experiment; they later hatch fire-breathing chicks. Maguire handles his large cast of characters with aplomb in a satiric romp filled with laugh-out-loud humor.
