Keegan and Alex are the only kids in Leamington who haven't volunteered to help out with the town's annual tomato festival.

In an attempt to teach them a sense of responsibility, their fathers put them in charge of the tomato toss. The boys decide it's their responsibility to add a little excitement to the event. They exchange the traditional wooden targets for human targets and, before they know it, they are running the most popular event at the fair. The excitement may be too much for the sleepy town and soon the tomato toss is taken to the streets.

This short novel is a high-interest, low-reading level book for middle-grade readers who are building reading skills, want a quick read or say they don't like to read!

Charged with running the tomato toss, the boys put their own spin on the event, which catapults the festival onto the international map. The main characters' well-drawn friendship and their silly hijinks make this an entertaining, quick read.
