Join Wally McDoogle as he and his best friend, a girl, trade positions for 72 hours after arguing who it was harder to be. Great plot, setting, charecters, and legnth This was one of the best and funniest books I've read! Anyone who hasn't read it should!

I love all the books in this series. They are funny and easy to read and each book is a story in itself. I am collecting them all and have read about 10 or so. This is a great book for grades 4-6.

I read the book, My Life an a Blundering Balernina. If you didn't, then please do. It's so funny!

I do not buy Library Discards.
This book was supposed to be "like new" (even the sticker on the back cover says so) and said nothing about a library discard.
The book is in poor cover condition, the pages are very yellow and it is most definitely a library discard.
I will not be able to use it in our library so this was a total waste of money!
I will not be purchasing from this seller again.

Wally McDoogle gets into one scrape after another, always causing catastrophe after catastrophe. Now, he's been tricked into switching roles with one of his best friends, a girl named Wall Street. Unfortunately, during that period, a major football game takes place and the ballet "The Nutcracker" opens. Wally has to play Wall Street's part as the Sugar Plum Fairy, while Wall Street has to take his place in the football game.

Of course, numerous other major catastrophes occur as well, during those 72 hours.

One thing kept occurring to me. No matter what his sex is, if one is thrown into ballet or any other activity he is unfamiliar with, he will face a much harder time than someone who has practiced it for a long time. So if a boy doing ballet and a girl playing football switched places, they would both find it a lot harder.

There was a story in the story, a story Wally was writing about a superhero. I liked how Wally's superhero sometimes took on a life of its own, talking back to Wally and not doing what Wally wanted. I hear that real writers have that experience all the time.

In reading the well-known, oft-repeated dialog "Is too." "Is not." et al., I was reminded of the March of the Peers in "Iolanthe" by Gilbert and Sullivan. One faction of the peers (the tenors) shouted "Tan-tan-ta-ra!" while the other faction (the basses) countered with "Tsing boom!"

THIS BOOK IS ABOUT WALLY AND HIS FRIEND,WALL STREET.WALLY SAYS THAT IT'S HARDER BEING A GUY,BUT WALL STREET THINKS THE OPPISITE.THEN,ANOTHER MCDOOGLE MISHAP BEGINS!THIS BOOK IS VERY HILARIOUS!!!!!!!!
