DescriptionGary Paulsen's slapstick tales capture the "wonderful madness" of growing up in a small town in northern Minnesota, when high spirits, showing off for girls, and general idiocy led Gary and his pals to attempt some amazing stunts, including: *Shooting a waterfall in a barrel *Breaking the world speed record on skis *Hang gliding with an army surplus target kite *Jumping a bike through a hoop of fire *Wrestling - with a bear? Wacky, daring, just plain nuts - extreme sports lead to extreme fun in these stories from Gary's boyhood. Reviews"These episodes will not only keep young readers, of both sexes, in stitches, they're made to order for reading aloud."--"Kirkus Reviews," Starred Author description? |
