Bobby Ellis-Chan has a really big secret: His bestfriend is a girl. Holly Harper has always liked to do all the same fun things he does-like roll down Skeleton Hill in a tire, or hide frogs in her bushy hair-and she gave him his beloved goldfish, Rover, who can do amazing tricks. But now that they're in fourth grade, things are changing. Holly made friends with a nasty Jillian Zarr and her wolf pack of other girls, and she's wearing new clothes, straightening her hair, and laughing at Bobby-even telling some of his secrets. He has to get revenge, doesn't he? Then when Ms. Carlson announces an election for fourth-grade school representative, all the boys support Bobby, but all the girls line up behind Holly. It's Bobby vs. Holly, boys vs. girls, in the biggest battle ever to rock Rancho Rosetta!

Olive Cobin Zang has . . . issues. And they mostly aren't her fault. (No, really!) Though she often slips under the radar, problems have a knack for finding her. So, imagine her doubts when she's suddenly dropped off at the strangest boarding school ever- a former castle turned prison that's now a "reforming arts school"! But nothing could've prepared Olive for RASCH (not "rash"). There, she's lumped with a team of other kids who never quite fit in, and discovers that the academy isn't what it seems-and neither is she. In fact, RASCH is a cover for an elite group of misfits who fight crime . . . and Olive has arrived just in time. Turns out that RASCH is in danger of closing, unless Olive's class can stop the heist of the century. And as Olive falls in love with this wacky school, she realizes it's up to her new team to save the only home that's ever welcomed them.
