The Life and Times of Theodore Addison

Ted, the 5th grade genius and Veronica, his arch-rival, are constantly pranking each other. When the pranks spill over and ignite a grade-wide war, the teachers organize a girls vs. boys competition. They expect to convince the kids to respect each other by setting up events in academics, arts, and athletics. But competitions aren't always fair, and when two girls suddenly become friendly with Ted's teammates, he suspects manipulation is involved. Compelled to prevent Veronica's ruses from succeeding, which could hurt his friend, James, a new immigrant who's already insecure, Ted will go to extremes... even at the cost of losing.
