Sixth-grader Ted Cheltoni has had it with his little brother Harry. The kid can be fun, but mostly he's noisy, hyper, forgetful, doesn't finish his work at school and can't clean up his room at home.
Ted, his parents, and the school try everything from Time Out to behavior and work programs, but nothing helps for long. Soon, Ted's parents are fighting so often about how to help Harry that Ted's afraid they'll get a divorce!
After a school trip, Harry gets suspended from both school and the bus. His parents are not happy they have to take vacation days and then transport Harry to school the following week. That afternoon, Ted finds Harry packing to leave home to "make things easier" on Mom and Dad.
Ted can't believe it. An eight-year-old kid thinks he's so bad he has to run away from home? He's got to help his little brother, and fast.
