Synopsis

The hilarious chapter book series about an accidental rule breaker from Katherine Applegate―Newbery Medal winning and bestselling author of The One and Only Ivan, Crenshaw, and Wishtree―returns with a fresh new look from artist Brian Biggs and bonus material!

It seems like everyone has an award of some kind. Except Roscoe. But a pet-trick contest is coming up, and first prize is a big, shiny trophy. Roscoe really wants that trophy―would he even borrow someone else’s dog to win?

Roscoe and his comical misadventures will appeal to fans of Megan McDonald’s Stink series; Nancy Krulik’s George Brown, Class Clown series; Rebecca Elliott’s Owl Diaries series; and Dan Gutman’s My Weirder School series. This repackaged edition includes Roscoe Riley’s Time-Out Activities, featuring lists, games, and more.


What happens when winning is the only thing that matters?


  • First Grade Problems: Roscoe's little sister has more trophies than he does, and he's had enough! He just needs to find something—anything—he can win.
  • Funny Dog Stories for Kids: His own dog, Goofy, is the best but can’t do tricks. Edward the poodle can. The choice seems obvious, right?
  • The Quest for a Trophy: Trading his grandma's hand-knitted (and very itchy) sweater for a prize-winning dog seems like a great idea. After all, a trophy is forever… right?
  • Bonus Time-Out Activities: The fun doesn't stop when the story ends! This edition includes extra lists, games, and puzzles for readers to enjoy.
