The first day at a new school is always the hardest, right? No, not always as George finds out the hard way. On the second day at…Sugarman Elementary School, he is suddenly seized by uncontrollable burps, burps so loud they practically break the sound barrier, burps that make him do wild and crazy stuff and land him in trouble with a capital T. One thing is for sure: these are not normal burps, they are magic burps—and they must be stopped! But how?

Synopsis
B-U-R-P spells you-know-what!In the seventh book in the popular George Brown, Class Clown series, George learns the hard way that an onion a day won't keep the Super Burp away - despite what his best friend Alex might've hoped. It's bad enough that one of the pesky, magic belches escapes at the mall and another lets loose on a miniature golf course, but George is representing his school at the countywide spelling bee. A burp at the bee could definitely spell D-I-S-A-S-T-E-R!
