** A close runner-up is [[spoiler: Rubin's death, which is shockingly graphic and prolonged for a children's book: while threatening Billy and his dogs with a hatchet, Rubin trips and impales himself on the blade. He begs Billy to take the hatchet out. Billy obliges, wiggling the blade from the other boy's stomach. A "bubble of blood" works its way out of Rubin's mouth. It bursts, and Rubin drops dead.]]
