Overview
                                It was the first day of school and Bubba Begonia felt great. Then -
SPLAT! Bubba meets his new classmate Stinky Biggs. He also meets
a stalking crow, a pair of puppets who speak Wabatawbee, a skunk
named Chiclet, a Flying Bag of Doom, and a dog with gas. He accidentally
robs a bank, he's called a 'hero' and is given a reward. He
has the worst birthday party ever, sees his favourite teacher dripping
with egg, buys a wedding cake that tastes like 'looove', saves a
bully's butt and nearly ends up in the slammer. This can't be good,
can it?
