George is representing his school at the county-wide spelling bee, and hopes to compete without getting overpowered by an embarrassing, magic super burp.

Ten-year-old George Brown tries his best to earn money for a special toy he wants, but whether he is working in his mother's craft shop or setting up a backyard circus, the magic burps erupt at exactly the wrong time and foil his plans.

George's magic burps threaten to ruin not only his team's chances of winning a class field day, but also his audition to be the fourth-grade sports reporter for his school's new closed-circuit television station.

George cannot wait to go on his first camping trip with the Beaver Scouts, but once in the wilderness his magical super burp returns, awakening animals including, perhaps, the Ferocious Furry Frog.

George and his classmates are excited to learn that their teacher, Mrs. Kelly, will appear on a televised dance show, but when they go to see a taping, the Super Burp proves it is not camera-shy.

In order to win an interview with an astronaut and a trip to space camp, George competes in a physical fitness contest, but in his determination to win, he misses how much this prize means to his friend, Alex.

"When his friend Alex becomes famous for breaking a world record, George has to learn to be a supportive friend"--

When George and Alex are featured as embarassing super villains in their best friend Chris's new comic book, the two of them feel offended and decide to boycott the celebration of the book's publishing.

"Determined to find a cure for his burping, George returns to Ernie's Ice Cream Emporium in search of a secret ingredient, but when a rival ice cream shop opens, George tries to keep Ernie's in business so he can solve his problem." --

"George's basketball team is practicing for their next big game, and the pressure is on. That's because they're up against his rival, Louie. And the stakes are even higher when Louie challenges George to a bet: The loser has to be the winner's butler for a week! George knows his team has what it takes, except for one small problem--there are no time-outs when the super burp takes control!"--
