IMO one of the best movie novels ever written! I love it because it's told in Cody's first-person view instead of third-person-view like most movie novels.
But there a lot of lines and things in the novel that aren't in the movie.
The "Z is for zurfing" deleted scene on the dvd DOES appear in the novel, slightly tweaked.
There is an extra scene where reggie is having a photo shoot with the other surfers and talks to the camra about Cody (right after the scene where lani takes a passed out cody to big z's tree)
And the end of the story, it's Big z, not mikey, who takes off reggie's hair, and he does it a lot eariler
Can't think of any more right now, but here's the amazon link:
