The Cockroach War

I would definitely read more books by this author; I think grade four or five boys would find this book very enjoyable.
This is a hilarious book! When the Cadwallers win $40 million dollars, they decide that they'd rather raze their house and rebuild than move. The Judge family could not possibly anticipate how obnoxious the Cadwallers become once they have lots of money. The Judge children, Toby and Emma, soon realizes that they can not possibly exist side by side, and they're determined to get rid of their neighbours. Toby is a genius, and figures out a way to capture and program cockroaches and bees to tiny, miniature remote controls, and he and Emma launch an insect army at their neighbours.
