Horn Book

Sixth grader Ronald (a.k.a. Cheesie) and his best friend Georgie find a four-hundred-year-old artifact; create a time capsule for their hometown of Gloucester, MA; and attend Georgie's father's wedding. This fourth installment features the series' formula of numerous subplots, tired humor, plenty of minor crises and hijinks, and frequent asides to previous books in the series (and to a website).

Readers of Diary of a Wimpy Kid and The Secret series will love Cheesie’s wacky lists, drawings, and made-up words as he tells the story of the time he became famous! Sort of.

Cheesie and his best friend, Georgie, are exploring a construction site when they find a weird-looking . . . thingie . . . sticking out of the muddy ground. Whatever it is, it’s very old. And very valuable! Before they know it, Cheesie and Georgie discover they’re in possession of an object that dates all the way back to pre-Colonial times. They’re instant celebrities! At least at school. Will Cheesie and Georgie hold on to the ancient artifact and the fame it brings, or give it away for the good of all? Only time will tell!
