Summary
Picture day is only three days away, and Hubie has a lot of work to do. He consults his mom's beauty magazines for tips on mud masks, cucumber facials, and beauty rest. He practices his toothiest smile and his most heroic pose. He picks out his most sophisticated outfit and spends lots of time combing his hair.

But just before the big day, disaster strikes! Hubie wakes up with a giant red zit right in the middle of his best facial feature: his nose. With his pimple about to be preserved for future generations, can Hubie save his moment in the spotlight?
This relatable, laugh-out-loud tale provides a kid's view on the perils of elementary school.

About this Series
Where—and what—is the Black Lagoon? As fans of this beloved series know, it's the worry-filled alternate reality created by Hubie's overactive imagination.

From a Frankenbully at school to a historically bad class picture, Hubie anticipates one larger-than-life disaster after another. His outlandish fantasies help readers laugh off their own anxieties, while the fact that his worst nightmares never come true gives them the confidence to rise to new challenges.Black Lagoon illustrator Jared Lee's drawings add off-kilter silliness to familiar school scenes, making them feel like they're straight out of Hubie's notebook, while author Mike Thaler fills the text with jokes, riddles, and puns, encouraging readers to see the creative possibilities of words.
