The Adventures of Hashbrown Winters by Frank L. Cole is a humorous treat. If you enjoyed Sideways Stories from Wayside School, then chances are you will like Hashbrown Winters as well. What kind of a name is Hashbrown Winters? Well, if you think that name is odd, then you have obviously never visited Pordunce Elementary School, where almost everybody has a nickname. But it isn’t only the nicknames that make this school unique, there is a student called the Oracle, who has been in his locker for seven years, there is a sixth grade mafia that has taken over the teachers’ lounge, and there is even a talking cockroach.
This cockroach is actually the source of Hashbrown’s troubles in this book. It just so happens that this cockroach is owned by the school bully, Hambone. When Hashbrown does the unthinkable, the school bully is set on revenge. Now if he hopes to survive, Hashbrown is going to have to use his wits and some help from his friends to make the school a safe place to live for everybody.
Forget the word “reality” as you dive into this book for a fun read. You will enjoy Hashbrown’s adventures at Pordunce, where anything is possible.
