Hey what’s up My name is BILLY BURGER Nice to meet you If you’re reading this you have good taste in books Now that I know something about you how about I tell you something about me I live with my family in a medium-sized house in a little town called Hicksville in the big state of New York Our medium-sized house got much
smaller the same time my family got a little bigger when my baby sister Ruby was born She’s kind of cute if you like stinky smelly noisemakers My parents both work at the Hicksville Police Department Pretty cool huh Dad is a detective Mom is a criminal psychologist Together they solve mysteries and catch troublemakers Now that I think about it that isn’t much different than taking care of me But I wouldn’t call myself a troublemaker exactly I prefer the term adventurer I’m always looking for interesting things to do or discover because I get bored easily I think it’s because I have an overactive imagination Want to know what’s more overactive than my imagination My appetite I love to eat and sometimes I think about that more than anything else Seriously I’ll try anything twice I usually don’t go on adventures alone My
partner in crime is also my best friend Teddy He lives a few houses down from me on the same block I’m always trying to think of fun things for us to do together When I get an idea it is usually awesomely epic Unfortunately my ideas don’t always go as planned and that’s when I get in trouble But I’m working on that I’m working on being a better person a better student a better everything Just like my grandpa William Burger the Hero of Hicksville He’s sort of a legend in our town He did good deeds and inspired others to do the same And like Grandpa I’m going to do just that I’m going to become Billy Burger Model Citizen
1 Out of This World Last one there is a rotten dinosaur egg Teddy cries He sprints off the bus and runs into the school Oh man I shout and race after him Teddy runs everywhere Meanwhile running is one of my least favorite things to do I think it should be saved for real emergencies like being chased by a pack of zombies or real dinosaurs But I also don’t like losing so I sprint as fast as I can to catch up
