Description

The concept of body switching has been used as fodder for Hollywood blockbusters for decades. Humor writer F. Anstey's take on this time-honored trope, Vice Versa, recounts the hilarious hijinks that ensue when a boy and his father suddenly and mysteriously wind up inhabiting each other's skin. Adapted for the silver screen four times, this knee-slapping romp is sure to please.

I'm really quite amazed how few people have Vice Versa in their libraries! For those who are interested in tracing an idea in children's fiction: this is a grand-parent of the parent-child swap novel.
