I've read many of these books much more recently to my kids. And I now assume in books like the Fudge series or Diary of a Wimpy Kid that the older brother is an unreliable narrator, especially when they make the younger sibling sound like a completely psychotic piece of poo poo who gets away with everything. Just think back to when you were that age, and how every slight felt like the greatest injustice ever endured by a human, and it seemed like your parents' always took everyone else's side in any dispute, when in realty you were also a little rear end in a top hat.

He was miserable due to lack of exercise and howled constantly, so my dad eventually made my grandpa take him back. A year or so later we went to visit grandpa and the hound wasn't there. He told us a long sad sad story about how he took that hound out hunting coyotes with a friend and they were attacked by a cougar, and the hound died heroically. lol holy poo poo that's great

Anyone else have to read A Separate Peace in middle school and have no idea at the time about the actual relationship of the main characters?
