( )Wallace Wallace is sent to detention for his book report of "Old Shep, Old Pal" not being up to his teacher, Mr. Fogleman's standards. His detention consists of helping out on the set of the play, "Old Shep, My Pal". Wallace discovers he has a knack for adding suggestions that the actors just love. Throughout the play rehearsals, someone is trying to sabotage the play. All evidence points to Wallace. In the end, we find who the perpetrator really is and the reasoning behind his actions. A cute YA story, and one I would have loved twenty years ago. Not particularly unique or creative within the genre, but a fun quick read nonetheless. When there's a dog in the story - why does the dog always die? Well, after a school football player is given detention in the auditorium, this production of a dog story changes drastically. i liked it and i thought it was a good book
I loved this book so much! It so was great.The book was funny, and filled with surprises. Half the thing that happened, I didn't expect them to even happen. Also, the characters had a great sense of humour. The main plot was interesting. At first, I kind of thought the book was really lame. But then as I went on and on, it just got better and better! I wish they would make a movie out of this.
Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0786816015, Paperback)Nobody understands Wallace Wallace. This reluctant school football hero has been suspended from the team for writing an unfavorable book report of Old Shep, My Pal. But Wallace won't tell a lie-he hated every minute of the book! Why does the dog in every classic novel have to croak at the end? After refusing to do a rewrite, his English teacher, who happens to be directing the school play Old Shep, My Pal, forces him go to the rehearsals as punishment. Although Wallace doesn't change his mind, he does end up changing the play into a rock-and-roll rendition, complete with Rollerblades and a moped!(retrieved from Amazon Fri, 24 Apr 2009 07:58:08 -0400) The first test round has been closed.
