I am a stickler for reading series in order. But what do you do when you're a second-grade boy and you get invited to your classmate's party - and that classmate is a GIRL, and your brother tells you that you're the ONLY BOY who was invited? You ask your older brother for advice (he's NINE, which makes him incredibly wise!) and occasionally hang out with your four-year-old little sister, even though she's little and she's a girl, because she's the sweetest, happiest person you know. You try to stay away from things that are creepy, creaky, or sticky. What do you do when you're a second grader who is scared of pretty much everything? You pack up your PDK (short for Personal Disaster Kit) and carry it with you everywhere.
