Wedgieman to the Rescue by Charise Mericle Harper –ESSENTIAL

Harper, Charise Mericle and Illustrated by Shea, Bob Wedgieman to the Rescue (Adventures of Wedgieman Book #2)  48 pgs. Random House Books for Young Readers, 2012. $11.55.  Content: Language: G (0 swears);  Mature Content: G ;  Violence: G.

There is a new bad guy in town. Larry. But he decides to call himself Bad Dude. He wants to destroy playground equipment and cause trouble. Will Wedgieman save the day? Will he be able to help children eat their vegetables? Will bad dude (or doodie if you pronounce it like a 1st grader) get a wedgie of his own?

A hilarious second book in a series! This is some quirky writing, and a super fun read. Students will love the further pronunciation errors turned into jokes. I love the random sentences inclusion. Unique and funny.
