This series is wildly popular at my library. This book is
funny, easy to read, heavily illustrated and perfect for an advanced K reader
up through even a 3rd grader who is struggling with reading. The
covers have a ton of appeal as well. Despite all the fun nonsense in this book,
the characters are believable and the reader ends up learning something!
