De la editorial
He's got a voice like a chainsaw, and he uses it to get people so mad they'll pay two dollars for the chance to drop him in a tank of slimey water. He's the bozo, and Chad wants his job--wants the chance to sit in a cage where he can shout at the world in safety, with no consequences worse than an occasional dunking.
But there's an art to being the bozo, and humor can do more than just slice and dice, as Chad slowly begins to learn when he meets the man behind the clown makeup.
Being the bozo. It's all about show business. Which means it's all about life. Sometimes you laugh. Sometimes you cry. And sometimes you just don't know what hit you.
Praise for the print version of DUNK:
"DUNK grips readers from the very first sentence and doesn't let go until the last."
-- SLJ, Starred Review Aug. 2002
"With painful truth, Lubar has created complex, difficult to understand characters that seem straight from real life."
-- BOOKLIST, Sept. '02
"A compelling dramatization of the power of laughter."
-- VOYA, Oct. 2002
