Description

Armed with Gobbles, Fatties, and Belcho, TrueViewer TV Thompson gleefully begins his nightly ritual of remote-controlling himself through Westerns, talk shows, old movies, news, weather and sports. Loud chomping on Charlotte's Web by a rude bookworm named Dudley interrupts this midnight medley. Dudley, a gourmet of the rare book room, tempts TV with an offer to enter the excitement and adventure of the color console world. This incredible and hilarious excursion includes a near stampede by the Manhattan Monsters, a showdown between Marshal Fred .44 (star of "Hot Lead") and Carleton Cool (spy hero of S.N.E.A.K.), and a possible adoption by the Mack Typical family. How this nighmarish experience in Televisionland makes him think twice about the effects of the tube on his imagination, his family and friends, his reading habits, and his future makes this a delightful and timely story.
