Tales from Wrescal Lane

Rating:
Summary: Good for what it is.
Review: I have to say that I really enjoy Mick Foley's children books. I have gotten both the Halloween and the Christmas books and have made reading these books an annual holiday tradition. These books are whimsical and above all try to teach a moral lesson. One thing that does need to be addressed is the need to continue to bring these books up to date as the WWE roster changes. Wrestling fans have short memory so characters like Stephanie McMahon and the Rock seem to fade from memory. When reading to the children, they want to hear about Chris Beniot and Eddie Guerrerro, JBL and Booker T. In another year, it will be a whole new group.

In Summary, a fun read, especially to the children. Each book has a moral and the kids seem to love them. This book was no exception.

Summary: Great in some aspects, a little dissapointing in others
Review: I loved the book itself but i felt their should have been a few more tales. The book includes only two short stories about the kids who live on wrescal lane. Both short stories are fun to read but i feel there should have been one or to more. Another thing that bothered me is that on the back cover you see a few characters from the stories, but there is a little Rey Mysterio, and Eddie Gurrero arent even mentioned in the novel. But all in all i think it is a great book, i loved the stories, it is a great childrens book, and i would recomend it to any one who like wrestling and would take the time to read it.

Summary: Worse than Madonna's Childrens Book.
Review: What a joke this book is. Not funny, ha ha, but funny as in, how disgraceful. Mick Foley, the evolution between Hacksaw Jim Duggen and Eugene, has done many unbelievable things in his wrestling career. While I loved his book, "Blood and sweatsocks" his latest biography, which is "Foley is Good" and "Wrescal Lane" have not done it for me. You can be on New York Times Bestseller List all you want, but it doesn't make you a good author.

This book especially is downright stupid. I understand it's supposed to be for kids, but even my kids looked at it and thought, "Jeez, this is horrible."

Mick Foley keeps coming to wrestling shows promoting his stupid books and wasting time between matches. I wish Vince McMahon would just tell this loser to take a hike, but since Mick's books are published by WWE, I feel that we don't have a choice.

Boy, TNA Impact is looking better and better everyday. You don't see Jeff Jarrett promoting a book, do ya? No, he sticks to what he best at, wrestling.

Don't buy this book.
