PS 87 is having multicultural week, and Ms. Adolf's class is putting on a "Foods From Around the World" luncheon. Hank makes enchiladas, and at the luncheon, Ms. Adolf piles her plate with lots of food. But after a few bites, her face turns bright red-one of the dishes is super-spicy! Ms. Adolf accuses someone of playing a mean practical joke and punishes the entire class with no recess until the guilty party comes forward. Hank realizes his trouble with numbers might have caused the problem-what if he accidentally used three cups of peppers instead of 1/3 cup? Will Hank be able to get recess back for everyone without getting detention for the rest of his life?
Illustrated by Carol Heyer.

In the series's latest, particularly sitcomlike offering, ten-year-old Hank accidentally puts on his sister's red socks and finds his pitching skills vastly improved. Sure that the socks bring him luck, Hank wants to wear them for the school Olympiadbut his sister insists on wearing them that day. The characterizations and humor are thin, and Hank's dilemma is never satisfactorily resolved.(Copyright 2004 by The Horn Book, Incorporated, Boston. All rights reserved.)
