Mo is the star of his school's track-and-field meet in the sixth title of the perennially popular, Geisel Award-winning series by David A. Adler!
Mo and his classmates from 2B will compete against the students from class 2M in a track-and-field meet and the winning team will get a surprise dessert! Mo, Jenna, and Dov will compete in the day's final event--the relay race--but first, Mo has to pass the baton without dropping it. He practices at lunch and during class, but the baton keeps slipping out of his hand. When the score is tied and the pressure is on, will Mo be able to win for his team?---from the publisher
