i was in the fifth grade when i read this book...i kinda stole it from my teacher cuz i loved it so much...then when i was in the 6th grade, there was a book fair and i saw a sequel call "Zoobreak" I got excited, but noticed the book was 10 dollars...i didnt have enough money so i hid it under a book shelf....it may have taken me 6 months, but I managed to steal that one too. Swindle was better but i enjoyed it :) Im now in the 7th grade...aha...still reading those books....
@ bathroombreak1 his name is GRIFFIN Bing not peter. and the reason the covers are different is because the one in the video is the first edition, and if your book is like mine , its the second or third edition ( 2 me this book is awesome)
Classic 80's Gordon Korman is the best GK. Bruno and Boots, Our Man Weston, No Coins Please, Don't Care High, Losing Joe's Place, Bugs Potter and Son of Interflux. Some pro reads right there.
I got this book and it sucks! what kind of name is peter BING anyways and the title of the cover looks different compared to mine and why does the dog look like he/she is havin a seizure???
Dude he was just at my school last week. I was special chosen to go meet him and talk. But he also talked to whole school. But only 8th and 7th got to see him. i was 1 out of 40 people to go meet him
Do not know what made me look Korman up, but, yes, he came to my school too about 15 years ago. I was his tour guide of my school in seventh grade, and he was damn cool, glad to see he's doing well for himself
Their names are Griffin Bing, Ben Slovak, Savannah Drysdale, Melissa Dukakis, Antonia "Pitch" Benson, Logan Kellerman, and Darren Vader. Griffin has been conned by valuables collector S. Wendell "Swindle" Palomino. Griffin's not going to let go of his fortune without a fight.
Aw, I grew up on Gordon Korman! He's bang on in what he says about the books you read in middle school. My literary "big three" were Bruce Coville, Linda Bailey, and of course Gordon Korman.
lol he came to my school and i was in the teachers lounge getting something for my teacher and he was in there getting coffee and the school librarian said this is gordan korman and i was like no its not and she was like yes it is and i was like no its not and he was like yes it is and i was like o my god!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!lol
You should make a vlog - I am a teen services librarian and would love to watch your channel. Also, I think kids would lvoe your channel as your story is so inspiring. You are great on camera. Just look what YouTube did for John Green's career!
love swindle it's like one of the best books i have ever read.the part when they started to tear down the house it had so much action and wow it was awesome can't wait to finish
yeah, this book was at my book fair that started yesterday, it sounds like a good book when i tried to get it all were gone. many people pre ordered it and thats what you had to do to get it now because theres no more and too hard to get so i pre ordered and its coming on friday i cant wait.
