What trouble could three brothers get into, especially when one of them is a genius and always looking for a way to make a quick buck?

This little story is one of brothers who can get into all sorts of trouble, and usually talk themselves out of it. But kids will also come away with the knowledge that with each action comes a consequence, and that sometimes those consequences can be dire. John, the youngest brother, seems to be the one to fall victim to his brothers, more than the other kids in the small town they live in, but there are times when others are the ones being taken advantage of. Tom, the middle brother and genius, always finds a way to talk himself out of whatever trouble he gets himself and the others into.

Cute little book, that we all enjoyed. I have bought a few more in the series to read with the boys as we move through the school year. Kids who are fourth grade and up will enjoy this delightful little tale!
