Brian Higman—called Big Hig by his friends—is about to be in big trouble.

It's Monday morning, and his teacher Miss Fromme is about to collect homework. . .  and Brian didn't do his.  There's a big red zero heading his way, and he knows his parents are going to explode when they hear about it.

But Big Hig has a good reason for having forgotten his "sloppy copy" first draft, involving his impossible five-year-old brother, a rock band practice at his house, and the mysterious disappearance of his entire life savings right when he needed it most.  It's a long, crazy story—but will it be enough to convince a teacher so stern they call her The General to give him another chance?

A perfect read for students who never know what to write about in school, The Sloppy Copy Slipup includes Big Hig's writing tips. 

Named to the Sunshine State Young Readers Award Master List and the Garden State Children's Book Award Master List!

A Bank Street Best Children's Book of the Year
