Summary: An Entertaining and Amusing Book!
Review: How to Eat Fried Worms by Thomas Rockwell is a very entertaining book! I read it sometime in the 80's when I was a teen and I thought it was a good book and very amusing. It is about a boy named Billy who when hanging out with his friends winds up making a bet that he will eat 15 worms. I know it sounds like a gross story and probably sounds a little lame but this book is actually pretty good and boys and even some girls ages 8 and older should find this book entertaining and amusing and I highly recommend it.

Review: Can someone enlighten me concerning the title of Chapter 23, to wit,

"Admirals Nagumo and Kusaka on the Bridge of the Akaiga, December 6, 1941"

What can that chapter heading possibly have to do with the book's story line? I asked a person who had enjoyed HTEFW as a child, and received a blank stare.

Thanks

Summary: How to Eat Fried Worms
Review: I read this book when it originally came out in the 70s and found it to be funny with believable characters. I think kids today would also find it amusing except that with all the Fear Factors and clones I think some of the shock value of worm eating has been dissipated.

Since the lead character gets to cook the worms, it really isn't all that bad. Not as bad as the TV shows where even weirder things are eaten raw.
