Summary:
"Eleven-year-old Matt Sprouts is in big trouble. He didn't mean to hurt his neighbor Jenna with that awesome martial arts move, it just happened! Blame it on morning cartoons or Jenna's lack of coordination. Anyway, getting grounded is the worst thing that could happen, right? Wrong. Matt Sprouts thinks he has the "Curse," a hometown myth that ruins middle schoolers lives. To defeat the Curse, Matt has to solve the mystery, and FAST! But that's not easy to do when you're entering middle school, keeping track of your little brother, trying to defeat the best soccer team, and oh yeah, not breaking any toes! The clock is ticking, and Matt doesn't have long before the Curse strikes again!" -- Provided by publisher.
