Billy was a boy that had a friend named Tom. Tom threw Billy the last worm. Billy was very brave because he at fifteen worms in fifteen days. That's a lot! That's why I like this book. Billy got tricked by Joe and Alan. "They glued a night crawler together I didn’t think that was nice for the worm.
I really enjoyed that the story included worms I love them. I don’t like eating worms though Billy never gave up on the mini_ bike. Billy grew into eating worms. He ate worm-and- egg on rye!!!
I loved the book because it was very descriptive. It tells a story about a brave boy eating worms. Joe and Alan tried to stop him! Then they locked him up! The one part I did not like was that he ate worms! In my opinion this was the best book ever.

This book was pretty nasty because billy had to eat 15 worms in 15 days .But at the end of the story he got hooked on eating worms.Billy made a bet .He was going to get $50 if he accomplished his bet.This book almost made me throw up because he got use to eating worms.I thought it was nasty,but it was a good book.

In my opinion,I think How To Eat Fried Worms was pretty good but I did not like it that much.I would rather have something else and not worms.
One reason why I did not like it is because worms are gross and horseradish is too and everything that he put on the earthworm was gross too.
The second reason is because I would of barfed if I had to put all that stuff on my fried worm and eat it. It would take a lot more than $50 dollar's for me to do it
These are the reasons why I say the book is pretty good, However,it was pretty gross.

How To Eat Fried Worms is a good book.It all started with a bet this boy named Alan did this boy named Billy a bet.If he eat's 15 worms he will 50 dollars. Would you do this bet well,I would to.I like how the author,Thomas Rock Well,put the bet in it.I like how they were truthful.I like Billy. He's funny and kind. I think in the book Alan needs to have more action for all of these reason,ill give you it 5 stars.

I think the book How to Eat Fried Worms is a good book because it teaches us a lesson of kindness and treat people the way you want to be treated(don't cheat). Another reason why I like this book is that the characters make me laugh sometime out loud. For example, Tom wakes up the neighborhood to see Billy eat a raw worm. One reason I don't like this book is because of the accent. The accent in some parts make no sense. A question I wonder is why or how this book got popular? If you ever get to go to the library, you got to get this book. It’s, so marvelous. I just know you will love it!

I think how to Eat Fried Worms was a great book, because it's mainly about two boys doing a bet. It was all worth it at the end because Billy got the minibike he wanted. Alan didn't get lucky at all. He wanted Billy to lose the bet because his dad wouldn't let him get money out of his account. The lesson the characters learned to not cheat is not because you will lose the bet and not win the bet.
