Spike the rebel caused trouble everywhere, and all the kids were afraid of him, except Mary. Mary warned him that one day he would get into big trouble because of his meanness. Spike continued to be mean at school, on the school bus, camping, and in the park. He thought that being tough and mean would make him happy. Instead, it made him miserable and got him into all sorts of trouble. Spike went over a dangerous waterfall with a stolen canoe and survived. One day while riding his bike, he hit one of his self-made bike traps. He broke his leg and bled badly. Debbie, a girl he laughed at for falling off her bike in one of his traps, came with her mother and saved him. Spikes life was transformed. He said to Debbie, I thought being tough and mean would make me happy, but Ive discovered Im much, much happier having friends and helping others.Sommer, Carl is the author of 'Spike the Rebel ', published 2007 under ISBN 9781575370729 and ISBN 1575370727.
