The Roscoe Riley books have been great so far. My sister has read The One and Only Bob and The One and Only Ivan and she cried in both of them. I'm am totally going to read them.
canada_matt's review against another edition
4.0
Roscoe Riley is back for another adventure, showing that popularity is not always what it cracks up to be! When the newest shoe fad hits the store shelves, Walkie-Talkies are all the local children want. With the ability to talk between pairs, children are begging their parents to get them. Roscoe is surprised when he receives a pair of his own, but his friend, Gus, is not so lucky. Gus has to wait until his shoes—the parent-popular Ruff and Tuffs—wear out. Nothing Roscoe or Gus do seem to wear those shoes out. However, leave it to Roscoe, Mr. Destructo, to find a way. With popularity on the line, Roscoe cannot let his friend miss this fad. This might be one time that a time-out is worth it. Neo really enjoyed this one, laughing when it came time to see how Roscoe destroyed those shoes. I reminded him not to get any ideas, or a time-out would be the least of his concerns.
