Just when they think they've got the hang of things, Rip and Red find that fifth grade continues to challenge them in head-spinning ways.

Rip has his world turned upside down as Tiki proves to be tough competition on the Clifton United basketball team and leads a rebellion against the lousy new food service in the school cafeteria.

But as these two funky and funny best friends discover, sometimes radical change is the right move, on the court and off.
