Calvin finds himself a hero in the fifth book of this lively series about Hawaii's fourth-grade "Everyboy."

Hawaii boy Calvin Coconut has come up with the best idea ever for his sister Darci's birthday party. But a huge tropical storm hits the islands and threatens everything. It rains and rains. And rains.
