Calvin Coconut: Trouble Magnet

Calvin Coconut: Trouble Magnet

Fourth-grader Calvin lives near the beach in Oahu with his mom and little sister. Mom says: â€œYouâ€™re the man of the house.â€ But Calvinâ€™s not great at being the man of the house, or taking care of his responsibilities. Heâ€™s too busy having fun with his pals, and avoiding Tito, the bully.

Trouble Magnet is the first book in a new series for younger readers full of all the fun of growing up in Hawaii. It introduces a wonderful multicultural cast of characters, including Mr. Purdy, who calls his fourth-grade class Boot Camp; Uncle Scoop, who runs the lunch wagon at the beach; Ledward, Momâ€™s 6'7" boyfriend; and gorgeous, intimidating, 15-year-old Stella-from-Texas, who arrives to be the live-in babysitterâ€”and to step all over Calvinâ€™s turf.
