It's boys against girls in a slimey neighborhood battle from the best-selling author of The Bailey School Kids.

Girls Rule, Boys Drool!
Boys Rule, Girls Drool!

It's girls versus boys on Daleside Drive. They dump slime on each other. They have Super Soaker battles. And they never, ever hang out together. Until now. The boys need the girls help to win a TV game show called The Slime Wars. The winning team gets cash and new bikes. The losers get a trip to the slime pit. But the teams HAVE to be co-ed. The girls agree to joing the team, but it's not going to be easy. Will they ever make it to the show? Will they get slimed? And will they ever be friends?

More About the Author

DEBBIE DADEY taught first grade before becoming a librarian. It was while teaching that she first realized how much she wanted to write a book for reluctant readers. Her first book, co-authored with fellow teacher Marcia Thornton Jones, was the result of a very bad day. Since then, Debbie and Marcia have collaborated on more than 125 books with sales of over forty million copies. Debbie lives in Bucks County, Pennsylvania with her husband, three dogs, and three children.

This review is from: The Slime Wars (Paperback)

My 8-year old has shown no interest in independent reading until she got this book. Now she asks ME if she can read to me. Finally! I'm in the process of ordering more 'Reilly Street Kids' books!
