I always thought this was the lamest one in the series. The plot and the entire tone are so goody two-shoes - straight outta "Leave it to Beaver". No Mrs. Graymalkin in this one, either - she provided the slightly subversive undertones that were the best part...

The main characters in this book are Kerby and Kerby's cousin,Gay. In the beginning it tells that it is Kerby's birthday and every year Kerby gets a package in the mail from his Great-aunt Cora. It is no ordinary present that a boy or a girl would want for their birthday. Once he got some socks and stiff hairbrushes, hankerchiefs,and a shoeshine kit. But this year he got some stationary paper to write with and some stamps and envelopes to mail letters with. In the middle of the book Kerby has written two sorry notes to Mrs. Pembroke, Kerby's subsequent door neighbor because Kerby accidently sprayed Mrs. Pembrokes Cat Xerxes. He also wrote a letter to Bumps Burton the big bully. The reason why he also had to write Bumps a sorry note was because Kerby had done something bad to Bumps that Bumps did not like. The letters that Kerby wrote were not nice letters. Mrs. Pembroke had told Kerby that she would call the police if he did something else bad to her cat. Kerby wrote in part of the letter to Mrs. Pembroke that he hoped she would get sent off to jail with her cat, Xerxes. He told Bumps some things that weren't nice. He didn't mail the letters he put them in his desk drawer. When he came back to his room to read the letters because they were so funny the letters were gone. He asked his cousin Gay if she had done anything with them. She said that she put them in the mailbox down at the corner. At the end of the book Kerby has a plan for Gay and him to try to get the letters back when they get delivered to Bumps and Mrs. Pembroke. If you want to find out more about this book and the secret plan you should get this book. I thought the book was good. I read it really fast. The author of this book is Scott Corbett. He has written lots of other books also.
