(3) 4-6 If you're fat and a vegetarian, and your name is Meatball, you get a lot of teasing. Luckily, once Meatball eats his namesake, he gains the magical power to turn into anything, and hence discovers and disarms a plot by school principals to rid the world of fun. Everything is over-the-top, so sit back and enjoy this outrageous, taut farce.
Reviewer: Anita L. Burkam
