by Frank Cammuso
A battle is looming at Camelot Middle School—a battle of the bands, that is! Artie, Wayne and Percy enter the talent show seeking fame and fortune. But only one of them plays an instrument: Percy. And he plays the saxophone. Their only hope of winning is finding the long-lost "Singing Sword," the fabled instrument of awesome power.
But how can Artie find time to rock when he's been assigned a new lab partner, Melody Claymore? Melody is a klutz and a goof, and harbors a not-so-secret crush on Artie. Is Melody his worst nightmare or possibly the answer to his prayers?
