How to Eat Fried Worms (Original 1973; 2006. Auflage)

I can easily see children loving this book. It is funny and gross and children love to read about both of those things.

One of my all time favorite childhood books! ( )

It was a delightful story. It's been awhile since I have read it..but I do remember that I enjoyed it a great deal. ( )

Tells a story about a boy who sets out to eat fifteen worms in fifteen days in order to win a bet.

Booklist

"Because of a bet, Billy is in the uncomfortable position of having to eat fifteen worms in fifteen days. A hilarious story that will revolt and delight bumptious, unreachable intermediate-grade boys and any other less particular mortals that read or listen to it.... Colorful, original writing in a much-needed comic vein."
