Synopsis: Thomas Tuttle has lots of trouble working on special projects for his third-grade class. Late again! In desperation, Thomas Tuttle makes Mars out of a Nerf ball. It's the best he can do for his solar system project--and there's no time to water his almost-dead bean plant, Lucky. Thomas is always just in time, unlike his best friend, Arthur, who is always prepared--and talks to his plants. There's a twist of events, though, when Thomas and Arthur visit Dipple's Dime Store, and Thomas turns into... a hero! Still, Thomas is determined to do well on his next school project. But is it worth the creaky climb up to a musty attic--with Arthur's tattle-tale sister on the prowl? Is it worth the giggles and pointing fingers from the girls at school? Is it worth learning how to do a project properly? Time is running out, and Thomas has to make a last-minute dash. But "last-minute" is what Thomas just may do best...
