Books with author Jeff Mangiat

Mix the tried-and-true antics of Wally McDoogle, never before seen black-and-white illustrations, and a nearly indestructible hardcover, and you've got the latest edition of My Life As Dinosaur Dental Floss. In this fifth book of the wacky series by Bill Myers, mishap follows mishap until Wally is chased by bungling terrorists, a SWAT team, the TV news, and the National Guard. It isn't until he risks his life to save his country (and has a little chat with the President) that the madcap misunderstanding finally ends...and Wally learns that honesty really is the best policy. Wally fans will be excited to add this new hardcover to their Wally collection!

Wally's got a bad case of the "I WANTS!" All his friends have way cooler stuff than he does, and he hates it. Even his prayers have turned into, "Dear God, gimmie, gimmie, gimmie, oh yeah, and gimmie some more" . . . Until Dad drags him along on some aid project to Africa . . . Until Wally gets majorly lost in the wilderness . . . Until he's attacked by hiccupping hippos, rampaging rhinos, and a herd of baboons who have some pretty weird eating habits . . . Until he meets a boy his age who shows him what really counts in life and the key to real happiness.

In this latest hardcover edition with black-and-white illustrations, our bungling hero, Wally McDoogle, runs into trouble-this time by unfairly judging others. What if every time you gossiped about somebody, you turned into the person you were gossiping about?! After a series of mistaken identities, Wally finds himself playing quarterback in the Super Bowl (a lot of fun for about 2.3 seconds). But it's not until he tries to see people through the eyes of God that he realizes it's better to love than to judge. Parents will love to watch their kids giggling along to the hilarious antics of Wally while learning important life lessons and a love of reading.
