About the Book

Weekend and Zay are excited for a snow day (Weekend more than Zay, who hates missing school), but their plans of friendly snowball fights and building forts might be ruined by threats from a neighborhood bully. Undaunted, the two friends use their intelligence and ingenuity to get the upperhand on their nuisance neighbor. It doesn't hurt that a home security camera has captured the bully's rare defeat. Will the threat of a viral video finally bring peace to the neighborhood?
