Frankie Pickle and the Mathematical Menace by Eric Wight
Frankie Pickle is back and better than ever. After turning the numbers into monsters instead of actually completing his math quiz, Frankie embarks on a weekend of preparation for a make-up test.

Everyone loves Bacon. Including Bacon. Bacon becomes so famous he forgets about his old friends, like Lettuce, Tomato and Avocado. What happens when Bacon realizes that everyone and I do mean everyone loves Bacon.

Frankie has a problem. His room is a disaster and he has to clean it. Frankie uses his wild imagination as he tries to figure out how to clean his room.
