TRUE, RL Stine shouldn't be idolised and reading the Bible's a *GREAT* idea!!! Though this may not be RL Stine's best book its still worth reading, it aint half as bad as these other ppl said it is!!!

So the story goes, a 12yr boy named Larry and his band find an old bottle of Sun Tan lotion that claims to give you an instant tan. They all apply it and soon start sprouting course hairs.

And they don't know why they tell their parents, but they wont believe them. Despite what the others said the ending is the best part and a wicked twist I might add!!! RL Stine never disapoints with the endings, except in some of his books...

To find out the rest READ THE BOOK!!!

I am just reading this book. It is so good, It makes me want to read all day.

Larry and his friends find and try a bottle of something called Insta-Tan. Soon after course dark hair starts growing on his hands. What was in that bottle?
One day his friend Manny doesn't show up for school nor band practice, and his house is empty. Has he moved? Why didn't he tell them?

This is a good story, with two mysteries going on.

I think R.L. Stine is my favorite author of all time.I like all of his books but my favorite one is My Hairiest Adventure. It's about a kid named Larry Boyd and a couple of his friends walking home from band practice when Larry digs through a dumpster. Digusting, right? He found a bottle called INSTA-TAN with a label that says,"Rub on and get a dark tan in a minute." He tried putting it on but nothing happened, until the next morning. When you read it, you might have nightmares if you don't under stand it. Read it, and you'll like it.~Cheesy

Although I'm young, I'm a long-time Goosebumps fan. I didn't like this one as much as the other Goosebumps TV books because the ending disappointed me. It also wasn't quite as scary as the other books. Overall it was OK but not the best of the TV Goosebump books.

this book called goosebumps my hairest adventure is an interesting book.it is an interesting book because it is scary and it make you want to keep on reading more and more of it.the setting of the story is outside in the snow where some strange dogs are at,and the story is about a kid name larry boyd,he had found an old bottle of insta-tan in the trash.so larry and his friends rub the ista-tan all over their body,but after they rubbed it all over their body they found out the label and the label was expired.then a few days later larry notice dark spikey hair was growing on his hands and face and everytime he cuts it off it keeps growing back again.

Larry is a kid who has a band, and his friends call him "Hairy Larry". One day he finds a bottle of tanning lotion that is supposed to give the person who weres it a tan. The next day that not only does the lotion not work, but he also finds out that he is growing gross black hair! If you want to find out the rest, read it yourself.

This book really kept me interested. However, it wasn't as scary as many of the other Goosebumps books. The ending is a real kicker and though seems kind of a cop out, it does tie things together nicely. Overall, just an average book that nonetheless is fun to read.

"My Hairiest Adventure" is about Larry who used a bottle of tanning lotion on his hands and hair starts to grow. One of his friends disappears, then he sees a dog with eyes that are 2 different colors, just like his missing friends. When he finally tells his parents, they explain that they couldn't have children, like many of the other people in the community, so their doctor developed a potion that he injected into dogs to turn them into kids. Now, Larry's immune system is fighting the potion and he is going to turn back into a dog, like his friends.

I was addicted to these books when I was younger and it wasn't until I was majoring in education in college that I figured out why. They were interesting with bizarre plot twists that most 9-12 year olds don't think about and they were short (usually between 110-130 pages). I could read the whole thing in a day.

My parents also didn't have a lot of heartache with buying me a new book because these are relatively inexpensive (in the neighborhood of 3-5 bucks each).

R.L. Stine's "Goosebumps" books aren't scary, just kind of creepy. There aren't graphic descriptions of murder and mayhem. Just some ghosts, werewolves, or potions. The main character is alive in the end, and the final chapter resolves everything.

**Keep in mind, R.L. Stine has other books that aren't in the "Goosebumps" series that tend to be a little harsher when it comes to hauntings and plot. They are written more for the 12-14 age group and are longer (around 150-200 pages).

The book was terrible. I did not like the way that it finished. I did not like all of it at all.
