Get ready for muckraking time at Emerson Hicky Elementary.

The race is on for student council president, but it's quickly getting fishier than the bottom of a pelican's lunch box. Sandpiper candidate Viola Fuss wants to lead the student council, but her campaign is already running into trouble stickier than a spider's handshake.

Someone is sending candidates ominous threats and posting signs with messages like FIR IS FIRST! and DOWN WITH FEATHERS. Meanwhile, kit fox Perry Winkel draws noisy playground crowds with speeches full of free bubble gum and grand promises.

Bully wolverine Ben Dova and his heavyweight pal Dum-Dum the badger are blocking the drinking fountains and roughing up any reptile in sight. Between exploding boys' room toilets and secret meetings in the library, fourth grade is getting rougher than a wrestling match with a Gila monster.

Could someone be trying to rig the election? Good thing Chet and Natalie are around to expose the filthy frauds!
