Because of a bet, Billy is in the uncomfortable position of having to eat fifteen worms in fifteen days. The worms are supplied by his opponent, whose motto is "The bigger and juicier, the better!" At first Billy's problem is whether or not he can swallow the worm placed before him, even with a choice of condiments from peanut butter to horseradish. But later it looks as if Billy will win, and the challenge becomes getting to the worm to eat it. Billy's family, after checking with the doctor, takes everything in stride. They even help Billy through his gastronomic ordeal, which twists and turns with each new day, leaving the outcome of the bet continually in doubt.

    I recall this book from when I was a boy. It must have been a new book back then. What marveled us was the brevity of the chapters. Forty-one chapters in 116 pages!

    I rekindled my interest this past year reading it with a few of my reading books. Despite the 2.6 RL listed on the book, this is more of a fourth/fifth grade reading level. I think Fountas has it as a sixth grade book.

    Wonderful story about a dare and what a boy will do. From what I understand, the movie changed the bet significantly.

    Lots of dialogue.
