About this ebook
The hilarious chapter book series about an accidental rule breaker from Katherine Applegate, Newbery Medal–winning and bestselling author of The One and Only Ivan and Crenshaw, returns with a fresh new cover from artist Brian Biggs and bonus material!
It seems like everyone has an award of some kind. Except Roscoe. But a pet-trick contest is coming up, and first prize is a big, shiny trophy. Roscoe really wants that trophy—would he even borrow someone else’s dog to win?
Roscoe and his comical misadventures will appeal to fans of Megan McDonald’s Stink series, Nancy Krulik’s George Brown, Class Clown series, and Dan Gutman’s My Weirder School series. This repackaged edition includes Roscoe Riley’s Time-Out Activities, featuring lists, games, and more.

Welcome to Time-Out
Hey! Want to play?
Oops. I mean, want to play when I’m done with time-out?
I sort of kind of got in some trouble again.
’Cause I sort of kind of borrowed somebody’s dog.
I only borrowed him so I could win a trophy.
A shiny, sparkly, silver trophy.
You’ve probably borrowed a dog before, right?
A cat? A gerbil? A tarantula?
Oh. Well, I had my reasons.

Usually when I end up in time-out, there’s a long story to tell.
And since you’re here anyway, I’ll bet you’d like to hear it. . . .

Something You Should Know
Before We Get Started
Just because your dog cannot read a book does not mean he isn’t a winner.
Maybe he just hasn’t figured out his real talent yet.

Something Else You Should Know
Before We Get Started
If your grandma knits you a sweater with pandas and smiley faces and hearts and baby ducks on it, do not give it to Martin.
Or anybody else.
It has sentimental value, you know.

The World’s Best Roscoe Riley
This all started because my little sister won another trophy.
Hazel is still in preschool. And she already has a golden trophy from Little Minnows swim team. And one for being the Fastest Skipper in Ms. MacNamara’s pre-K class.
