When an old girlfriend of his best-selling, and vain, author brother is kidnapped, reliable and kindhearted Joel determines to find her. By the author of Crazy Vanilla. This description may be from another edition of this product.
I first read this book when I was probably about 11. Since then I have read it 3 more times, and I still love it! Now I am fifteen, the same age as Joel Greenburg, the protagonist of this book(yes, 15-year-olds use the word protagonist, at least if you come from my school and were in my 8th grade English class). No one pays much attention to Joel, ever since his older brother JJ's book was put on the New York Times Best Sellers list. When JJ's ex girlfriend Marilyn is kidnapped, JJ doesn't seem to care much, but Joel sets out with his faithful dog, Sherlock, determined to find her. A lot of funny things happen along the way, and I'd be willing to bet you'll be surprised at the conclusion. This is the type of book that you can read in one day with no desire to put it down and no regrets after.
