Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
It’s time for a tag team as Big Chew jumps back into the ring Ollie and Tamiko saved Slamdown Town, and wrestling is popular again! The rise in popularity draws two newbies to the ring: the Krackle Kiddos, Linton Krackle’s son and daughter. They may be puny middle schoolers, but they’re somehow unbeatable. Something’s fishy about Linton’s kids…and it’s not just the prize crackle fish on display at Krackle Manor. Soon the son and daughter of the Slamdown Town CEO are changing the arena into something it’s not. This identical duo is up to no good, and no one—not even the The Referee or Werewrestler—can stop them. No one, that is, until Tamiko transforms into Game Over—the combo-savvy wrestler with a flair for turning her opponents into a pile of pixels. When Ollie joins Game Over as Big Chew, the two best friends become the Ragtag Team. They determine to find out the truth behind the Krackle Kiddos’ winning streak and give them a run for their money in the ring while they’re at it. Being tag team partners with your best friend is awesome…but when it comes down to it, can Ollie and Tamiko make for the kind of winning combo that sniffs out clues and takes down the competition?

Trying to Save Piggy Sneed
Author: John Irving
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1628726288
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 339
Book Description
A commemorative hardcover edition of the only collection ever published of the celebrated novelist's shorter works. Here is a treat for devoted fans of John Irving. First published twenty years ago, Trying to Save Piggy Sneed contains a dozen short works by the author, beginning with three memoirs. The longest of the memoirs is "The Imaginary Girlfriend," his candid account of his twin careers in writing and wrestling, which, as the Denver Post observed, is filled "with anecdotes that are every bit as hilarious as the antics in his novels . . . [and] combines the lessons of both obsessions." The middle portion of the book is fiction. Over a career that spans thirteen novels, these are the six stories that Mr. Irving considers finished. Among them is "Interior Space," for which he won the O. Henry Award. In the third and final section are three homages: one to Günter Grass and two to Charles Dickens. To each of the twelve pieces, he has contributed author's notes, which provide some perspective on the circumstances surrounding the writing of each piece. For readers who prefer a hardcover, this commemorative edition is a book to treasure. For new readers, it is a perfect introduction to the author of works as moving and mischievous as The World According to Garp,A Prayer for Owen Meany, and In One Person. Skyhorse Publishing, as well as our Arcade, Yucca, and Good Books imprints, are proud to publish a broad range of books for readers interested in fiction—novels, novellas, political and medical thrillers, comedy, satire, historical fiction, romance, erotic and love stories, mystery, classic literature, folklore and mythology, literary classics including Shakespeare, Dumas, Wilde, Cather, and much more. While not every title we publish becomes a New York Times bestseller or a national bestseller, we are committed to books on subjects that are sometimes overlooked and to authors whose work might not otherwise find a home.
