The Dog Stole My Brain (Aussie Chomps)

Description

Jake wishes that he could stand up to the bullies at school. If only he could have his dog Barney's life - a life of snoozing and eating - things wouldn't be so bad. Jake finds a website that claims to switch brains with another person, which may be the answer to the bullying problem. But when Barney accidentally presses the return button on the computer, Jake becomes the family dog and is mortified to see himself behaving in an unexpected dog-like manner. But could this new Jake have the guts to tackle the school bullies? A very funny story about one boy's life as a dog.
