Synopsis
Award-winning author Sid Fleischman blends the broadly comic with the deeply compassionate in this memorable novel, winner of the Newbery Medal. A Prince and a Pauper . . . Prince Brat and his whipping boy inadvertently trade places after becoming involved with dangerous outlaws. The two boys have nothing in common and even less reason to like each other. But when they find themselves taken hostage after running away, they are left with no choice but to trust each other. "A rollicking tale of adventure and mistaken identity . . . . Robust scenes and characters are vividly evoked."-- Kirkus Reviews This briskly told tale of high adventure, taut with suspense and rich with colorful characters, was named an ALA Notable Book. Sid Fleischman's celebrated novel features brief, action-packed chapters and includes black-and-white illustrations by Caldecott Honor artist Peter S s. "An 18th century tale about the escapades of a resourceful orphan and a spoiled young prince. . . . Full of adventure, suspense, humor, and lively characters."-- The New York Times Supports the Common Core State Standards, Award-winning author Sid Fleischman blends the broadly comic with the deeply compassionate in this memorable novel, winner of the Newbery Medal.

  • Children's Novel was Replaced with Faith-based poetry book

    The Whipping Boy was not sent instead I received Rilke's Book of Hours: Love Poems to God . I love the Lord. However, the Whipping Boy is what my kid wanted and what I paid for.

  • A fun adventure book for kids

    I bought the book to use with the "Total Language Plus" Language Arts program. My kids didn't like the injustice at the beginning. The language is fun and descriptive and won them over as the adventure went on.
