[LM_NET] BOOK: Me Oh Maya by Scieszka

[Frederick Muller <mullinator52@GMAIL.COM>]

Scieszka, Jon. Me oh Maya [Time Warp Trio]. Viking, 2003 [0-670-03629-3]
Our friends, Joe, Sam, and Fred, are playing Basketball when suddenly they
are whisked back in to to Mexico in the middle of a ring ball game where the
loser is the next human sacrifice.  Once again Scieszka takes us back in
time in a humorous fasion using wordplay scattered with a bunch of facts.
Here the Time Warp Trio has to trick the leader, Kakapupahed (Caca
Poopoo Head) to a game which will help them win their time travel book
back.  This 70 page book (along with the others in the series) is a great
high-interest low vocabulary read in which the reader is entertained and
even learns something of history.
