Ten-year-old Nathan Rockledge cannot catch a break. After all, life as a fourth-grader can be hazardous - what with science projects to deal with and recess football games to avoid. Everyone, including his best friend Tommy, seems to have bad luck when hanging around Nathan.

Of course, all of that means nothing without the biggest perk of all...the class trip to New York City in the spring. If Nathan's class can raise enough money to go, that is.
