Oggie Cooder, Party Animal by Weeks, Sarah. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780439927925.

Oggie Cooder has never set foot (or swim fin) in his neighbor Donnica Perfectos swimming pool. But now he has his chance—its Donnicas birthday, and her mom has forced her to invite Oggie to the pool party! Donnica, though, isnt about to let this happen. She has a plan to keep Oggie away. But what she doesnt count on is the power of Oggies charving, an unexpected visit from a local rock band, a creative use of a cherry picker, a dog that tweets like a bird, and a boy in a bear suit whose identity will change everything when its revealed. Once again, Sarah Weeks has created a funny hero who wont let anything—not wimpiness, not adversity, not haiku contests—stand in his way.
