by Sarah Weeks

A Texas Bluebonnet Award Finalist, 2000"A clever take on the search for one's identity"- School Library Journal"Funny, fast, and a good response to the question, 'Got anything that'll make me laugh?' "- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books"A virtual chain reaction of buffoonery."- Publishers WeeklyGuy Strang is convinced that the man and woman with whom he has lived all his life cannot possibly be who they claim to be: his parents. They're too weird! Would anyone else's mother tie-dye every pair of underwear in the house? Would anyone else's father perform the famous oyster trick - sucking an oyster up his nose with a horrible noise and spitting it out of his mouth - in a restaurant? No. Except maybe the parents of the weirdest, most unappealing kid in Guy's whole class, Bob-o. But Bob-o's parents are as normal as parents come - just like Guy.Could Guy and Bob-o have been . . . switched at birth?
