Remember how I said I wanted the cover and apparently there was none, so after immense amount of research, I was actually able to buy the book with the cover I wanted. I’m super happy because like you said and as well as the other person, the sneakers cover is super rare. Is this peak collecting, can I physically say “Hey I have a rare Gordon Korman book cover wowie”

Oh yeah, and I was able to finish both The Unteachables and War Stories, so now I’n reading No More Dead Dogs and then after that I’m gonna read The Hypnotists!

@Twiz: As someone who delights in collecting hard-to-find books, I echo your "wowie." Well done, tracking down the exact edition you wanted to add to your bookshelf! I'm still partial to the original cover design, and remember being thrilled when I found a hardback copy signed by the author.

Since it's your current read, you may be interested to know NO MORE DEAD DOGS has been released with two different cover designs.
