      CHAPTER 1

      Bananas Lose Appeal For Barnaby

      What on EARTH is Barnaby wearing? Jake said to Alexis.

      Barnaby, their classmate, was standing near the gate to Bembley Road Sports Club, wearing a strange yellow and black outfit that went over his head, ending in a pointy hood. Underneath, he had a face like he’d just eaten a large mouthful of moldy cabbage soup.

      Dunno, Alexis said, giggling. He’s not happy about it, though.

      As they reached Barnaby, Jake realized it was a banana costume.

      If you laugh, I’ll never speak to you again, Barnaby growled. Ever.

      Jake kept in a laugh. OK, I won’t — but why are you dressed as a banana?

      Barnaby pointed. "That’s why."

      Not far off, Jake saw a stand with a sign which read:

      That company has put loads of money into the tournament, said Barnaby bitterly. So Mrs. Blunt decided it would be great to have all the student council members dress up as bananas, to promote them. Our principal’s evilness knows no bounds!

      Oh, so Mrs. Blunt made you a council member, then? asked Jake.

      No, I volunteered. But I didn’t know I’d have to wear a stupid fruit costume, said the angry banana.

      Alexis couldn’t keep a straight face any longer. Ha, ha! Oh, Barnaby, that’s such bad luck! I’d never be seen dead in a banana costume.

      A mean laugh from behind Jake made him turn around. Amelia Trotter-Hogg, ponytailed pest of Class 5A, was standing there, a look of evil happiness on her face.

      For once, I agree with Alexis, Amelia said, smirking. She turned to Barnaby. I thought this was a soccer tournament, not a fruit and veggie competition.

      What are you doing here? said Barnaby coldly. I thought you had Prissypants’ Pony Club on Saturdays. Barnaby shook his banana-head as if flipping a ponytail.

      Amelia glared. "It’s Priscilla’s Pony Club, actually. She turned to go, then looked back. And you’ll find out why I’m here soon enough…"

      She marched off. Barnaby glared after her.

      It’s her fault I’m dressed like this! I’d have been on the team with you guys if she hadn’t told on me.

      You can’t blame Amelia, Alexis said. You’re the one who put slugs in her lunch box. You should have known it would get you a day’s work on the Rockery — it was just bad luck that was the day they picked the team.

      A day’s work on the Rockery was the punishment for any student getting three Sad Faces. A Sad Face was given for breaking a school rule. There were a hundred and forty-one (or maybe two) school rules, so it was quite easy to break one without even knowing you had, and Barnaby found it easier than most.

      Jake! Alexis!

      Woodstock was walking toward them, with a little old man dressed from head to toe in soccer gear. The old man’s face was painted in blue and white stripes, their team colors, and he was wearing a ball-tipped hat to match. He held a megaphone to his mouth.

      WE’RE ON OUR WAY TO BEMBLEY, WE’RE GONNA MISS ASSEMBLY, DA DAAA DAAA DA! DA DAAA DAAA DA!

      Woodstock rolled his eyes.

      Stop it, Granddad! He turned to the others. My granddad’s crazy about soccer. In fact, he’s just plain crazy. Granddad, these are my friends.

      SPEAK UP, BOY! Granddad bellowed into the megaphone. Jake’s eardrums shook in pain.

      I said — these are my friends, Jake and Alexis! Woodstock yelled in his ear.

      No need to shout, Granddad said. I’m not deaf.

      Granddad shook Jake’s and Alexis’s hands, then turned to Barnaby.

      And who’s this?

      Oh — hi, Barnaby, Woodstock said, recognizing Barnaby for the first time. Sorry, I didn’t recognize you in that costume. Granddad, this is Barnaby…

      Hello, Bananaby, Granddad said.

      Alexis almost giggled. Barnaby’s face turned more cherry- than banana-colored.

      BAR-NA-BY! shouted Woodstock. "Oh, never mind. Barnaby, can you help my granddad find a seat? We have to go
