With his best friend Hoover Porterhouse -the ghost with the most-by his side, Billy's got the competition in the bag. Who wouldn't vote for a demonstration on mind reading? But when Billy lands a spot on the seventh grade team, he starts spending more time with his new teammates than he does with Hoover. And the Hoove plays second fiddle to no one!

Billy and the Hoove are back in the hilarious new series from bestselling authors Henry Winkler and Lin Oliver!
