✨ About The Book ✨
🌟Rufus the Doofus ! 🌟
Welcome to San Dune Middle School, where the homework is wild, the cafeteria pizza may or may not be alive, and the ocean’s waves have bigger secrets than your math teacher’s hairdo.
Meet Rufus, a twelve-year-old with more enthusiasm than coordination and a knack for turning every disaster into a comedy show. Along with his best friends Patti Murphy, the brainiac who carries a first-aid kit for Rufus’s ideas, and Pismo, a surfboard legend in his own mind, Rufus stumbles onto a mystery that could change their school forever.
This time, the stakes are higher than ever the trio has one goal: Win the annual San Dune Surf Slam, the biggest event on the coast. But just when they’re catching the perfect wave, their dreams get caught in a rip current of trouble. The diabolical principal, Mr. Blart, is scheming to sabotage the competition by canceling surf practice, “losing” their boards, and even shutting down the beach under the excuse of an “environmental hazard.”
🌟 More About the Book 🌟
Determined to uncover the truth, Rufus and his friends dive into full detective mode. What starts as a school mystery novel quickly turns into a full-blown surfing adventure story complete with after-school stakeouts, seagull spies, and booby-trapped lockers. But as their investigation unravels, the kids discover a plot that could destroy not just their surf team but the coastline they love.
Between rogue seagulls, exploding toilets, and a principal who may or may not be allergic to fun, Rufus the Doofus proves that being brave sometimes looks a lot like being ridiculous. Through friendship, laughter, and a splash of saltwater courage, these kids show that even the smallest heroes can make a tidal-wave-sized difference, both for their school and the ocean that connects them all.
So grab your surfboard (and maybe a snorkel), because this middle grade adventure is about to make a splash!
