KING OF THE CREEPS by Steven Banks
Tom is short, frizzy hair, big glasses and a bigger nose, no girl will look at him, a real creep, or so Tom thinks.Tom wants to jump off the George Washington Bridge, but it is 1963 and big noses and frizzy hair are in because of folksinger, Bob Dylan. All the girls in his New Jersey high school are crazy for folksingers, so Tom decides to visit Greenwich Village, buy a guitar and become a folksinger. He learns one chord, meets Angelina and his whole world turns upside down.
A poem, the Ed Sullivan Show and a creep can change the world.
This is a funny story for boys in MIDDLE SCHOOL who need a book report about friendships with girls. It was written by the head writer of SPONGEBOB SQUARE PANTS.
