It's 5th Grade, and the Dudes are ready to rule the school.
The mission:
Inflate the class economy,
Rock down the walls,
Race to the state capitol, and
Take over the governor's office.
The Goal: To take possession of the most powerful dart gun ever invented! You won't want to miss Deven's hilarious election speech, Jayden's Dude-themed birthday bash, or the battle with baby-stealing bandits!
Guard your garden gnome because Dudes are taking over!
In 5th Grade, you have to be totally mature and responsible. That's why the Dudes are taking their wacky brand of humor to the school! You'll crack up when these five friends take on babysitting, back yard downhill skiing, and a spy mission to the principal's office. You'll LOL through the talent show, the election, and a robot bidding war. Sherwood Elementary will never be the same!
Fun on an epic scale for your kids!
Book Two of The Dudes Adventure Chronicles is a series of realistic but zany suburban adventures featuring kids who know how to make their own fun! This modern series is for intermediate readers 8-14 who can't get enough madcap adventure and hilarious hijinks. Each chapter book provides several capers that keep kids reading to find out how it all comes out...or doesn't (!) with hilarious consequences.
The books can be read as a series or in any order. The Dudes are a diverse group of preteen boys with awesome ideas for IRL action. These five best friends find clever ways to have fun and, incidentally, turn their neighborhood upside down!
This diary of Dude-approved adventures is filled with classic boy fun like: battles, corny jokes, zombies, treehouses, secret codes, and summer fun!
Praise for Save the Dudes:
With one priceless, laugh-out-loud scenario after another, the mother and son team of Johnson and Reynolds delivers a fine tale...
...the story is given depth by emotional challenges each friend must face, described with subtlety.
Readers will likely be eager to read the next adventure.
Hilarious comic mayhem, rounded out by affection and insight. --Kirkus Reviews
Spoilers: Classic humor without movie tie-ins or fart jokes! Appeals to middle grade readers who like funny, realistic fiction without a tacked-on message or ripped-from-the-headlines problem.
Lacking in butts, farts, and crude humor, this series is perfect for fans of Gordon Korman, Dave Pilkey, Jeffrey Brown, Mike Lupica, Gary Paulsen, and Kwame Alexander.
Classic middle grade humor with modern kids and realistic misadventures make for better-than-real-life hilarity. If they like Beverly Cleary's Henry Huggins or Barbara Robinson's The Worst Best Christmas Pageant Ever, they'll love the Dudes!
Warning to Parents:
The Dudes' insane take on parents, school, and the PTA just might be catching. Anecdotal evidence suggests that readers of the Dudes may imagine some resemblance between the Dudes' parents and their own.
Can be read as a series or in any order.
Makes a Great Gift or a Perfect Stocking Stuffer for preteens.
Great choice for summer reading or as a read-a-loud that will have the whole family cracking up.
