Wacky truth!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
All the Wally McDoogle series are great reads to put before upper elementary kids' eyes. Wally, er, Bill Myers, has a wild imagination that he lets run free in this series! Each book addresses some problem or weakness pretty common to most of us, and then Myers has Wally take it to an extreme to make a point. In this second story, Wally gets a chance to be in a movie being filmed in town. Turns out he is to be "eaten" by a mechanical "mutant from Mars". Of course the machine malfunctions, the stars are weirdos, and even Wally's friends get a little weird toward him, too. Pride can be as big a monster as the mechanical mutant from Mars!
Alien Book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
If you like books about Aliens you should read this book. It is a story about a boy who loves to write super hero stories on his lap top Betsy. He gets put on a commercial and everyone starts to like him. Everyone asks him favors but he can't do them. His best friend goes on the set and lets the baby fleas out all over everything. It is the funniest part of the whole book. If you read this book you will laugh yourself dead. It is very funny.
Hollywood meets Wally!

I liked this book because it uses much humor and teaches a valuabe lesson like all the "Wally McDoogle" books. In "Alien Monster Bait," Wally learns about pride and treating others more special than some people. My favorite part was when Wally got cut out of the film and Opera screamed longer than him.This is a great book- I recommend it for anyone with a sense of humor.
Alien Monster Bait:Two Thumbs Up!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
I've read several books in this series,including this one.Wally McDoogle,a 12-year-old "Living Disaster Area" who writes superhero stories with the help of his laptop,Betsy,is best friends with Wall Street,who wants to make 1,000,000 dollars by the time she's 14,and Opera,who loves junk food and classical music.Each book is humorous,yet also teaches a lesson from the Bible.For me,that's rather versatile.In this book,Wally stars in a new movie.His popularity leads him to get the attention of Melissa Avarice,the prettiest,most popular girl in school,yet also leads him to forsake Opera.During a sermon,he realizes that he's not right in leaving his friend alone.Opera is raising fleas as a science project and comes-with the fleas-to see the film being taped.He screams and then is grabbed by "Gertrude",the monster.He ends up starring instead of Wally.I really enjoy all of these books.I'm trying to read them all.
Very Funny!

Wally gets a movie role in a Hollywood film and neglects his real friends. A hilatious story about pride.
