The Strange World of David Lubar

Weird literature for young readers.

  Imagine having an "Oppositional Notebook".  Write anything in this book and the exact opposite happens.  Once you figure out what's going on you have immense power...just make sure that no one else writes in your notebook.  Might the perfect Halloween costume be your grandmother's hat and gloves?  It might alarm the local bullies!

  These stories and many others appear in INVASION OF THE ROAD WEENIES AND OTHER WARPED CREEPY TALES http://catalog.plsinfo.org/record=b1663245~S1 .   Ever dream of getting out of gym class?  This and other strange adventures can be found in ATTACK OF THE VAMPIRE WEENIES AND OTHER WARPED CREEPY TALES    http://catalog.plsinfo.org/record=b1988410~S1.

  If you want to read a David Lubar kind of story you're going to have to go with David.  I've checked and there aren't any authors quite like him.  He has a website of course http://www.davidlubar.com/.  The stories are short and they pack a punch.  Who are the Road Weenies?   Hint: you see them every day.
