Hi.
Thanks for checking up on me. Probably best to go over to my web site: www.Billmyers.com for biography information. And if you're really bored, there's my fan site over on Facebook:

If you're a student and your class reads one of my books, I'll do a 'meet the author' 30 min question and answer session by speakerphone with your class from my office here in California. If you're a reader's group, the same thing goes...in which case I'd recommend ELI to really get the discussion juices flowing - at least until THE GOD HATER comes out in 2010. Thanks for stopping by!

4.0 out of 5 stars Hollywood meets Wally!, April 18, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: My Life as Alien Monster Bait (The Incredible Worlds of Wally McDoogle #2) (Paperback)

I liked this book because it uses much humor and teaches a valuabe lesson like all the "Wally McDoogle" books. In "Alien Monster Bait," Wally learns about pride and treating others more special than some people. My favorite part was when Wally got cut out of the film and Opera screamed longer than him.This is a great book- I recommend it for anyone with a sense of humor.

If your kids like funny stories about misadventures this is for you. This is a nice series of books that will have the youngsters listening and laughing about the antics that take place. Was fun for the whole family to listen to on trips and can also be used alone for those times that you need a break! Recommend it highly.

This review is from: My Life as Alien Monster Bait (The Incredible Worlds of Wally McDoogle, Book 2) (Hardcover)

Sludge Productions has come to Middletown to make a movie. Wally McDoogle tries out for the role of screamer and nabs the part. Then everything changes. His identity shifts from Dorkoid to famous actor. Everyone wants to be his best friend, including the beautiful and popular Melissa Sue. But that's not the worst of it. His teacher, his brothers, even his dad are all sucked in by Wally's stardom, and they all want something. Can Wally please everyone? Or will he succumb to all the attention by turning his back on his best friends?

Bill Myers has created a wonderful character in Wally McDoogle. He is funny, sarcastic, and gets into everyday mischief that we can all relate to. In this volume, Wally, a writer, is working on the story of Brawn, James Brawn and his attempts to stop the evil villain Lizard Lips from stealing all the commercials from Hollyweird. Myers uses this quirky character to show that being famous isn't so great after all. All younger teens will enjoy the laughs in this book.
