Deana FL Posted October 31, 2008 Author Share Posted October 31, 2008 suggestion also...:glare: Then he thought about it again and decided he didn't want to be either one, cause they both ended up with whippin's...he decided that his lil brother could be his whipping boy.lol I'll check out his other books...it was a nice read for him, stepping out of the series-type books and into literature. although it was a battle the first day, he admitted to enjoying it.

If at all possible, get the book on tape sometime. My ds has read the book, but no matter how often he hears it on tape, he NEVER tires of it! The reading is just so well done -- funny!! The guy does accents and makes noises, etc. Very, very fun! We keep saying someone should make this a movie! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DB in NJ Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 Well whaddya know! I was just looking through the library website, and THERE IS A MOVIE! It's called Prince Brat and the Whipping Boy. It was made in 1994. I sure hope it's well done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
