Flat broke

by Gary Paulsen

"He doesn't lie now, but he's broke. He's got to find a way to make some money. Lots of it, so he can impress Tina Zabinski, the World's Most Beautiful Girl, and ask her on a date. So Kevin gets creative about making money--and his life becomes a financial comedy of errors. Does he really have what it takes to get filthy rich at age fourteen? In Gary Paulsen's hilarious follow-up to Liar, Liar, Kevin's schemes lead him into situations that are sweet, some that are sticky, and some that are downright stinky"--Page 4 of cover.
