Synopsis:
A shout comes echoing up the stairway. "Fetch the whipping boy!" A young orphan named Jeremy rouses from his sleep. "Ain't I already been whipped twice today? Gaw! What's the prince done now?" It was forbidden to spank, thrash, or whack the heir to the throne. Jemmy had been plucked from the streets to serve as whipping boy to the arrogant and spiteful Prince Brat. Dreaming of running away, Jemmy finds himself trapped in Prince Brat's own dream - at once brash and perilous.
Review:
"A top-notch read-aloud."--Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
"With his flair for persuading readers to believe in the ridiculous, Fleischman scores a hit."--Publishers Weekly
"A rollicking tale of adventure and mistaken identity, written in a style reminiscent of 19th-century melodrama."--Kirkus Reviews
"Eminently satisfying."--ALA Booklist
"The Whipping Boy is a quick, fast-paced book full of wisdom and heart. It delivers a full-scale story in a short, accessible format."--Brightly
