Matt, Sean and Coop, best friends since grade school, always set a goal for themselves for the summer. This summer the goal is: to see a real, live girl naked. While they are doing this, Matt also decides that he wants to swim the 100 yd butterfly – a grueling event for any swimmer, and one Matt will need to really practice to even attempt; but he will impress Kelly, a new girl on his swim team- whose boyfriend also swims the 100 yd fly.
This is a laugh-out-loud, read-to-anyone-around book. The extents to which his friends go to help Matt avoid swimming this event are hilarious. The lengths to which Matt will go to keep his friends from actually seeing Kelly naked while not alerting them to the fact that he is doing just that are outstanding. When Matt does fall in love, we all cheer. Vomiting, pooping, possible naked girls- what junior high boy wouldn’t want this book? Ok what adult male wouldn’t want this book? Or is that too redundant? Even the adults in this book are well drawn.
