Squish’s best
friends are into a new video game called Mitosis. Squish becomes addicted, giving
up sleep, and ignoring his homework. Readers also get the continuing story of
Squish’s favorite comic book hero, Super Amoeba, who is fighting black mold.
I have to admit
that I really didn't like Squish when I read another book from this series, but
it has grown on me. It’s a popular request from students, 3-4th
grade boys. I loved this one because Squish comes to his own conclusions about
what excess is doing to his life. I also think students will relate to the
video game and comic inclusions as well. Very entertaining!
