Homer Price is a mild-mannered boy who lives in the sleepy town
of Centerburg. Somehow, he continues to
get himself involved in the most outrageous incidents, like the time when a
donut-making machine ran out of control.
Even worse was the time when Homer came face-to-face with his comic book
hero, the Super-Duper, and he realizes that….well, I’ll let you read this one
for yourself!
Homer Price was written in 1943 so the environment might
seem a little dated, although the characters are genuine and will still
resonate today. Boys will be boys, no
matter the century. Homer Price is a
hilarious book for middle-grade readers, one that I’d even be willing to
recommend to a girl!
