So there is this 10 year old boy... well he starts off as being 9... but his "amazing, awesome, not destructible" birthday ****note that I'm using sarcasm if you can't tell : is during the middle of the book... so he's 10....anyways Teddy has 7 siblings... can you believe that.... anyways he has a close best friend Lonnie... and starts warming up to Viva (a new girl in his class)... but in the beginning it starts of with the Destructor (Jake, his younger brother) always ruining things for Teddy.... seriously Teddy has the worst luck... but still Jake had a huge impact on Teddy... and at the end he was the sweetest little brother( sweeter than mine!!! JUST KIDDING... I love <3 my brother to death) Anyways I'm getting a bit off topic... but Teddy finds this Guinness World Record's Book... and throughout this whole story, there are some of his attempts to be in the Guinness World Record's Book.... So do you think Teddy made it??? And Teddy had it enough with Jake... so Teddy set up a tent... learns some facts about PIGEONS, and there's also the grumpy ole' pigeon man... Also when you read it... Grace, Teddy's 12 year old sister... may seem annoying at first ( I can't blame you.... but then again we might of all acted like that in some time of our lives) BUT she play such an important role... yeah you heard me IMPORTANT.... To a bed having pee(kinda immature... but still it was hilarious :p) to Lonnie's older brother usually being a jerk and is not(What's up with that???
