How Angel Peterson Got His Name book by Gary Paulsen
By Gary PaulsenWhen you grow up in a small town in the north woods, you have to make your own excitement. High spirits, idiocy, and showing off for the girls inspire Gary Paulsen and his friends to attempt:
• Shooting waterfalls in a barrel • The first skateboarding • Jumping three barrels like motorcycle daredevil Evel Knievel–except they only have bikes • Hangliding with an Army surplus target kite • Bungee jumping • Wrestling . . . a bear?
Extreme sports lead to extreme fun in new tales from Gary's boyhood.Author Biography: Gary Paulsen is the distinguished author of many critically acclaimed books for young people. His most recent Delacorte books are Guts and Caught by the Sea.
