Roscoe Riley Rules #6: Never Walk in Shoes That Talk

Katherine Applegate

The hilarious chapter book series about an accidental rule breaker from Katherine Applegate--Newbery Medal winning and bestselling author of The One and Only Ivan, Crenshaw, and Wishtree--returns with a fresh new look from artist Brian Biggs and bonus material!

It seems like everyone in Roscoe's class has Walkie-Talkies, the cool new shoes that let you talk to your friends, and his pal Gus wants a pair too. But Gus's parents won't buy them until his old, boring sneakers are worn out--and that could take forever. Luckily, if there's one thing Roscoe is good at, it's destroying things. . . .

Roscoe and his comical misadventures will appeal to fans of Megan McDonald's Stink series; Nancy Krulik's George Brown, Class Clown series; Rebecca Elliott's Owl Diaries series; and Dan Gutman's My Weirder School series. This repackaged edition now includes Roscoe Riley's Time-Out Activities, featuring lists, games, and more.

Praise for this book

Praise for the ROSCOE RILEY series: "Applegate perfectly captures the voice of kids in this fast-paced, funny title. Children will love the short chapters, kid ingenuity, and comical illustrations." -- School Library Journal

"Applegate's writing is strong and lively, and the short sentences, funny situations, and frequent appearance of pictures will make this series an easy sell to novice readers. Adult readers-aloud will also appreciate the understated humor of Roscoe's narrative and nod in recognition at the goings-on." -- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

"Roscoe is an appealing, lively kid whose story is both entertaining and thought-provoking, and Biggs'expressive pencil drawings add to the humor" -- ALA Booklist
