KEL GILLIGAN'S DAREDEVIL STUNT SHOW
BUCKLEY, MICHAEL
From Michael Buckley, the bestselling author of the Sisters Grimm and NERDS series, and Dan Santat, authorillustrator
of Sidekicks, comes this hilarious picture book starring Kel Gilligan (a.k.a. “The Boy Without Fear”) that
encourages kids to laugh at their fears and celebrates the bravery it takes to try new things no matter how
ordinary. Narrated by Kel himself as he attempts his “stunts” with Evel Knievel–like flair, the story unfolds as a
performance in which readers themselves become part of the audience, encouraging Kel to get dressed all by
himself (without a net!), eat new foods like broccoli (eww!), and take a bath (gasp!). Bold, interactive, and
downright silly, this is a book to make kids cheer and attempt some “stunts” of their own.
