The Snarkout Boys and the Avocado of Death.

I think that should be a band name.
I want to read this book.
For some reason this title is cracking me up.
Avocado of Death?
Must be a California thing.

It's quite a funny book! Daniel Pinkwater reads a litle like Kurt Vonnegut or Douglas Adams, but with fat kids. I think the Avocado of Death was the weapon created by an evil mastermind... I have to go read it again. It's out of print by itself, but you can still buy it in the form of the book 5 Novels, which also includes 4 other geat books of his.
