A Lesson in Doing Your Best All the residents of Bumblyburg are feeling lazy. Can LarryBoy save the day or will the Bubblegum Bandit take over Bumblyburg? This is a Level One I Can Read! book, which means it’s perfect for children learning to sound out words and sentences. It aligns with guided reading level J and will be of interest to children Pre-K to 3rd grade.

JUNIOR ASPARAGUS IS in a pickle! After he breaks his dad's favorite bowling plate, a strange creature named Fib shows up and convinces him to lie about it. Junior is happy that his dad doesn't punish him, but now Fib seems to be growing! Before long, Junior's “little fib” becomes a 30-foot-tall monster, threatening all of Bumblyburg. Fortunately, LarryBoy, the superheroic cucumber, is there to save the day. This lesson in telling the truth, based on the bestselling DVD LarryBoy and the Fib from Outer Space!, is retold in a full-color Little Golden Book.

Once again Larryboy saves the day and shows the Veggie kids in Bumblyburg that when they stop learning, they stop growing.

"The city of Bumblyburg’s in danger and LarryBoy’s the only one who can save the day. Everyone is weak with jealousy after the diabolical Napoleon of Crime and Other Bad Stuff—a.k.a. the Emperor of Envy— tainted the Slushee supply with his envy formula during Mister Slushee’s Slushee Slurping Contest. The Emperor has set the ultimate envy trap, and he and his “army” of henchmen are taking over the city of Bumblyburg. The whole town has slurped some of the Slushees, including LarryBoy. What will LarryBoy do? Will he conquer his own envy? If he doesn’t stop the evil emperor, Bumblyburg will be destroyed forever."

When LarryBoy and his superhero buddies are invited to Superhero Island, they are in for a surprise of volcanic proportions. Trouble erupts when LarryBoy discovers he’s a second-class citizen, because he doesn’t have “super” powers like his buddies. Bumblyburg’s newest supervillain, Chili Pepper and his henchman Coconut, are cooking up a plot for disaster to destroy all superheroes. Will Larryboy help after his vacation is ruined and his friends treat him poorly? Kids will enjoy the adventure of finding out as Larryboy tumbles into a secret hideaway and uncovers Chili Pepper’s tourist trap. But is it too late when the volcano explodes?Will LarryBoy save himself or will he save the day before the island is covered in hot, molten chili? How will Larryboy learn that everyone is important in God’s eyes, even after being excluded from his friends?

"When Larry's new 5-D space squadron finally arrives, he's so anxious to play that he forgets to read the directions. When his friends do their best to tell him, Larry refuses to listen! What happens? His game goes 'KERPOW!' That's when Larry learns a valuable lesson in listening as his friends come to the rescue. Kids will discover, right along with Larry, that God gave us friends and family to help us through each day--so when we listen we don't miss what others have to say." --Back cover.
