Seventh-grader Boris Snodbuckle has a strange name, a quirky personality and no chance of beating Robert Pinsent, the most popular boy in school, to become president of the student council. Even Boris's best friend and sidekick Adrian (the book's narrator) thinks it's hopeless. But Boris knows Bendale Public School is sunk if Robert wins, and he won't let that happen. So watch out people, Operation Save Our School has just begun! With his knack for outrageous adventure (and trouble!) and an unshakable belief in the impossible, the unforgettable Boris Snodbuckle is everybody's new favorite hero!
