Customer Reviews

Upchuck and the Rotten Willy

My 8 1/2 year old got this book and asked me to read it to him every night. I also fell in love with this book and it was so well written. I am now going to get all of the sequels to this book as a special surprise for Christmas. A story of friendship and sharing life together, it warmed our hearts. The book also kept us both in stitches. We would read paragraphs over and over just to get a good laugh! It was wonderful time together laughing and learning about what life as a cat would be. I loved the parts where the cats would make fun of the dogs.

Can cats and dogs really be friends?

This is a story about how a cat and a dog can be friends. Upchuck is the cat and Rotten Willy is the dog. When Upchuck's friend moves away and his Katie goes to some place called College, he becomes lonely. So the only one to play with is Rotten Willy, a Rottweiler, "As big as a car and as black as death itself," but can he trust him to be his friend and not another stupid dog wanting to bite off his head and eat him for lunch? If you want to find out, then you will have to read the book! It warmed my heart, and made me laugh. If you like books about animals and like to laugh, then this book is for you!Heather Harger, age 10

It's a Must-Read-Gotta-Get-Book

I love this book. I got it at a school book fair in 4th grade. I think all pet lovers, or any one that would like to read a good book, should read this one. Upchucks (Chuck) best friend moves away. One day his is stuck between to fences. The Rotten Willy (a kind dog), and the one that would like to bite Chucks head off. To find out what happens, You've Got To Read It Frist!

A wonderful book that will raise your soul.

Upchuck and the Rotten Willy was the best book I ever read. It made me cry, it made me laugh, and it made me have a warm and fuzzy feeling inside all at the same time. If you haven't read this book you have got to read it! It is written from a cat's perspective who runs into lots of troubles, adventures, friendship, sadness and happiness.

This is a great book!

This is the best book I have ever read! It is about a cat named Upchuck.When his friend gets "smooshed", and his other friend moves away,he has to deal with the Rotten Willy.
