How to Eat Fried Worms by Thomas Rockwell (***)

My kids love the movie, and it had been a while since I had read the book, so I thought I would have a listen. Besides that they have the same theme, the book and the movie are not really alike. In the book, he eats one worm a day instead of all in one day. And it's not a bully he's trying to beat, it's his own friend. The part I think is disgusting is that in the end, he develops a taste for worms, so he keeps on eating them! Yuck!
