Synopses & Reviews
What would you do if your best friend was:
1. Still imaginary (and still an oversize blue chimp with major junk-food issues)?
2. Nominating you to run for class president - against the most popular kid in your grade?
3. In charge of your campaign posters . . . all blue, of course, including your face!?
4. Planning a magical secret weapon to help you win (not fair and square, right?)?
5. Driving you crazy?!?!
Now you have an idea of what Willie Ryans life is like as his adventures with Dodger continue. The last thing Willie wants to do is run for class president, but both his running mate, Lizzie, and Dodger wont let him quit - and have their own ideas of how to run a campaign, especially against James Beeks, Mr. Popularity. In this second installment of the Dodger and Me series, the humor runs high, the friendships run deep, and Dodger continues to run on French fries and good intentions.
Review
“The outlandish tone should please Dodgers fans”—
Booklist“Dodgers silly sense of humor is entertaining, and the situations in which Willie finds himself will have any reader laughing out loud. Willies awkward affection for his friend Lizzie is a sweet aside to the story. Reluctant readers will find themselves cheering on Willie and wanting to read more in the series.”—VOYA
