Bubba is BACK!!! But he's not alone.
Meet his new classmate Stinky Biggs. "This book is laugh-out-loud funny. It would make a wonderful read-aloud
for teachers and is an easy read for less able readers. Excellent, enduring
... " "O'Brien's style is that of a good storyteller [think Robert Munsch
for older readers] making for great read aloud material for a group of
kids." "Bubba Begonia, You'll Be Sorry! has everything kids in
this age group could want - funny characters with silly names, a "gross"
situation and a fast-moving plot. ... Highly Recommended!" "A novel for kids 8 and up!" Having read Gerry's first book, Bubba Begonia
You'll Be Sorry, and hearing him read aloud from it at a meeting for
teacher-librarians, I knew it would be the perfect book to recommend to the
Grade 3 teachers at my school when they came looking for read-aloud
suggestions from me in September. First one teacher, then the other read it
aloud to their classes. The students LOVED it. The well-developed and zany
characters with their very individual voices and Bubba's finger-up-his-nose
voice had them hooked. I couldn't keep the books on the shelves. What a way
to kickstart a year of reading! Rosemary Driscoll,
