3 stars A cool book that is as educational and as it is entertaining. A great way to learn about quicksand. The information is simple and easy to understand while still incorporating a fun story. A nice way to learn. And I really liked the ending.

3 stars J.K. Rowling did a very good job of making this book read like an actual history book. Unfortunately, because of this, it is a bit dry at times. It’s an interesting book, but it can be a little dull. Each chapter is pretty short though and the book moves quickly. I really like…

4 stars If you thought the last Captain Underpants book was weird, you ain’t seen nothing yet. Time travel, alternate realities, and more hypnotism, this is definitely a strange one. A very entertaining read with all the same things that made you fall in love with these books in the first place (the cheesy jokes,…

3 stars There was nothing necessarily wrong with this book. It was entertaining and funny to the degree I expected of a George Beard and Harold Hutchins original. However, I think Dav Pilkey kind of wrote himself into a box with the Captain Underpants/Super Diaper Baby series. The book greatly lacked the gross-out humor of…

4 stars A very cute picture book. I love how simple the words are, but that there is still a whole story that goes on when combined with the pictures. The illustrations are great as well. A fun tale of being brave and making friends.

2 stars I read this book on a road trip. It was a perfect book to read in the car, because I could easily detach myself from it if a conversation started and I didn’t have to pay too much attention to the text, which usually gives me a headache. Knowing that it was a…

3 stars Cute book. The illustrations were interesting and the story was humorous. Good intro into what various animals eat and personal preferences.

2 stars For me, this book was just okay. I liked the idea behind it and the structure was interesting, but I prefer stories that are thorough and fleshed out. Many of these just felt like creepy descriptions rather than complete stories. I will say, I was expecting something entirely different based on the whimsical,…

3 stars Interesting story. I enjoyed the epistolary style, but I could see how it may not resonate with young children. The story is really driven by the letters so it may be a bit confusing. The wording is often vague so I think it is suited for more advanced readers than very young ones….

3 stars I read the second book in the series before this one, but it feel pretty solitary about them both. Interesting story. I enjoyed the epistolary style, but I could see how it may not resonate with young children. The story is really driven by the letters so it may be a bit confusing….
